Reclaiming Our Spirits – Indigenous Women’s Program
The knowledge and wisdom that Indigenous women carry has held together families, preserved culture, and strengthened communities since time immemorial. When women are well supported to be healthful and present in their own bodies and lives, they inspire others to care for themselves too.
Access to culture is healthcare.
Access to a community of women with shared experiences is healthcare.
Laughing and sharing meals is healthcare.
Learning about and walking gently on this beautiful territory is healthcare.
The opportunity to come home to and find safety in our own bodies is healthcare.
