Ways to Help
An Indigenous-led and operated gathering place is an urgent need for healing from the hurt and harm of the last 150 years. Your support for an Indigenous Gathering Place is an act of Reconciliation.
Lend Your Voice
Advocacy for the Indigenous Gathering Place is crucial in realizing our vision for truth and reconciliation.
You can make a difference by talking to friends, family, and colleagues about the importance of this initiative, writing to local government officials to garner support, writing your own letter of support and following and sharing our content on social media.
Each conversation, letter, and share helps break down barriers and amplify our cause, bringing us closer to making the Indigenous Gathering Place a reality. Join us in using your voice to advance our shared goals and create meaningful change for Indigenous peoples in our community.
Tell us what the IGP would mean to you!
Testimonials will help us highlight the need for an Indigenous Gathering Place and understand the diversity of the people who would benefit from this special space.
To provide some direction about what to say, consider:
The opportunities: possible benefits for yourself, your family, your relations, and/or your community
Your senses: the way it might look, physical feelings, and what it may smell like to be there
Your feelings: how you might feel mentally, emotionally or physically when you're there
