Today marks National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, a time to honor and reflect on the experiences of Indigenous peoples, acknowledging the tragic legacy of residential schools, the missing children, and the survivors and families left behind. At Partners Community Health, we are dedicated to the journey of healing and understanding. To commemorate this important day, residents at Wellbrook Place East gathered to listen to a powerful presentation by Sara Call, Environmental Services Manager with Compass Canada, who shared about her story about being Plains Cree, from Treaty 4 from the Peepeekisis reserve in Saskatchewan. Residents also engaged in a meaningful craft session, where they created handprints and t-shirts adorned with words that express their feelings, such as hope, freedom, justice, power, change, and healing. Meanwhile, residents at Wellbrook Place West embraced their creativity by crafting Indigenous-inspired necklaces, honoring the rich heritage and resilience of Indigenous communities. Together, we embrace the journey of reconciliation, fostering understanding and healing for all. 🧡 #EveryChildMatters #OrangeShirtDay #NDTR
