Our thoughts are with Star Blanket Cree Nation after findings from ground-penetrating radar searches at the site of the former Lebret Indian Industrial School were announced. We recognize the ongoing legacy of the residential school system and stand in solidarity with the community and those affected.
Your Indigenous Initiatives team is here for you. If you are in need of support, the team will be available on January 16th in room 227 at Waterfront Campus for drop-ins where you can access sacred medicines or an ear to listen.
