Working Together – Wiijinokiiwag Collaboration Project was created and released in September 2021 to mainstream organizations who support and empower Indigenous Peoples within their organizations. This 1.5 Day Virtual Program is designed to bring awareness to life promotion, awareness, education, and collaboration that supports mainstream organizations to grow Indigenous Cultural Safety Practices. We focus on empowering, building, and growing connections & resources to ensure that we have safer environments for everyone.
This collaboration project is run in Seasonal Session from 9:15 am- 4:15 pm Day One and from 9:15 am- 12:15 noon Day Two with Expansion Projects, Community Collaboration Circles and Teaching Events offered additionally throughout the year to further the work of creating strong relationships of support between organization and services for the Indigenous Peoples in our community.

Working Together- Wiijinokiiwag Presents Voices of Change Series One
2022-05-27 08:00 - 09:00 | You Tube
It is our mission in the Working Together- Wiijinokiiwag program to create and empower change, awareness and space for all peoples to shine on their path of humanness! In light of all the truths that are coming to the worlds attention, we need to ensure that Indigenous voices are heard! Not only around our peoples stories, losses, learnings and celebrations… but to ensure that the hard work of our ancestors is carried forward in that “good way” for all to embrace!
It was expressed inside of our Working Together- Wiijinokiiwag Program that collaborations of unity & strength are desired… it was identified, that there is a gap on how we get there as many are afraid to further deepen the pain being felt. “Fear is a silent partner” that holds us bound to the history of the past we are longing to change! On both sides of this discovery we wrestle with the next steps forward… at Working Together- Wiijinokiiwag we say” take the step”, then do it again, and together, we will get to the place were looking for exactly how creator intended, as one!
For all of these reasons, we give you Voices of Change… filled with magical wisdom, strength, courage, pain and celebrations… we promise their will be teachings for all to explore. What will be left on the community table is “what will you do” with the information you seek?
Inside this very special series we will have many conversations around all of the topics of life. We will showcase the courage, resilience and glory of our Indigenous brothers and sisters and we will invite all peoples to lean in and rise with us all as we create a world together that fits us all in equality, safety, celebration and strength!
This will be an 8- Part Speaker Series found exclusively on social media and it all kicks off on Jan 27th- 2022!
