Post

I realize I've not done an introduction post for myself, so: I'm Jacy Eberlein, I have a BA in English from the University of Alberta. I ran for St. Albert city council in 2017, then worked a variety of jobs before working with the Alberta NDP from 2019-2021.

My major policy focuses were disability rights, homelessness, and planning. Over the past ten years, I have only become more radicalized on city planning as a major factor affecting all aspects of our society. In 2021, the isolation of work-from-home caused me to burn out hard.

I have recently discovered that part of that was my undiagnosed ADHD and the failure of the coping mechanisms I had built. From there I worked as a photographer, until I was able to continue my work with narrative construction as a developing editor last year.
