What this is about

Join us for an Indigenous circle-based learning event focused on deepening understanding of Indigenous experiences, historical and current, and exploring how we can hold two positions at the same time (often not without inner conflict and inner work).

Bill will share his lived experience of honouring his mother's faith while helping him and his father in re-claiming his Indigenous identity, and what it means to live, practice, and lead within complexity.

You’ll also hear about

• Infusing Indigenous ways of knowing, doing, and being into social work
• Bringing Indigenous practice into institutional spaces
• Navigating intersections of culture, faith, identity, and belonging
• How we build stronger, more respectful practice in diverse settings

Come with curiosity. Leave with perspective.
