If you need help, please reach out. Having an emotional reaction from hearing about the atrocious history and impacts of Indian Residential Schools is completely justified and normal. What happened was wrong and never should have happened.

I am not a supporter of Organization that are Federally Funded . Not different than federal elected Indian Act Chiefs n Councils . All are under the policies who they are funded under .
Is this for administrators/staff only or is there spots for interested community members who are not employed by the Band office?
Let’s go Yow!
Teach people to treat their members equally
That looks like some excellent programming!
