To commemorate the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation (September 30), the Indigenous Collaboration, Equity & Inclusion team will host cultural events throughout the month to honour Residential School Survivors and their families in recognizing the strength and resilience of Indigenous Peoples and communities. 

As we continue with our Strategic Plan 2026, we remain dedicated to providing a culturally safe experience for all staff and patients. We encourage staff to attend the events held throughout the month.

If you have completed your Wake the Giant Training and want to learn more, we invite all staff to take part in our new cultural safety training session titled, “Repairing the Sacred Circle: An Indigenous Cultural Awareness and Education Primer”. 

The session will introduce participants to an insightful way of thinking about truth and reconciliation. It will be a reflective pathway for cross-cultural discussion and an entry point to create the necessary change for awareness and inclusiveness.

This is a free training session, there is no cost to attend. The session is 3 hours long and takes place in-person. We encourage all staff (including students, residents, volunteers, and PFAs) to participate and look forward to seeing you there.

The 2025-2026 schedule is now live. To register for a session, click HERE.
