Tania Brzovic is a life-long Nanaimoite who was one of the first special needs students to be fully integrated in School District 68, attending Princess Anne and Rutherford Elementary schools, Wellington Junior Secondary School and Nanaimo District Senior Secondary School. As someone who was raised in a family of teachers, she learned from an early age that a healthy public system is the cornerstone of a strong community. She has a degree in child and youth care and has many years experience in advocacy, particularly in the areas of anti-poverty work and supporting individuals with special needs and their families.

She has served on multiple non profit boards. Currently, she is part of a team that runs the Harewood Youth Ball Hockey League. Their goal is to provide a low-cost, fun recreational activity for children. They emphasize sportsmanship, fairness, teamwork, providing strong role modelling for children/youth. As well, she has helped with many community school activities, such as Kids 4 Kids, the Summer Reading program, games clubs and other activities. She has also worked with the United Way, the Southside Teen Centre, the Vancouver Island Crisis Society and other agencies.

Tania is always open to hearing from stakeholders.
