Social Work from an Indigenous Perspective/for Indigenous People

Join us to listen to the concept of social work from an Indigenous perspective and understanding social work for Indigenous people.

As part of the implementation plan for the Akak’stiman Indigenous Strategy, one of United Way’s key organizational commitments is to identify and co-create learning activities to build the internal capacity of United Way staff and external capacity with our partners.

Participants will have an opportunity to listen to teachings and concepts from an Elder or knowledge keeper on the topic of social work from an Indigenous perspective and understanding social work for Indigenous people.

If there is time, we will invite participants to a Q&A component of this session.

Please arrive a few minutes before the start time to get settled so the Elder or Knowledge Keeper can get started on time.

The session will begin with a smudge and blessing.
