Scope and Content
Item consists of a video recording of a live Zoom webinar hosted by Burnaby Village Museum's Kate Petrusa. The webinar is titled "Prisons & Reformatories in Early Burnaby" and is presented by Lisa Codd, Heritage Planner for the City of Burnaby. The zoom webinar is the fourth in a collection of seven "Burnaby Neighbourhood Speaker series" webinars that were presented and made available to the public between September 29 and October 27, 2020. The live webinar and recording was also made available on the Burnaby Village Museum's facebook page. In this webinar, Lisa Codd talks about how in the early 20th century Burnaby was home to several correctional and detention institutions that sought to reform their residents, including the Oakalla Prison Farm, New Haven Borstal Home for Boys and Youthful Offenders, the United Church Home for Girls and Home of the Friendless. Lisa supports her presentation with contemporary and historical photographs and research. Lisa pauses throughout the presentation to take questions from webinar participants.
