"Traditionally we had many, many words and ways of treating our children to affirm our belief that they are our sacred gifts. This experiential workshop will help us to understand traditional Aboriginal ways and values."

About the facilitator:
Kathi Camilleri is an Aboriginal woman who has worked coordinating healing programs in the Aboriginal Community for 14 years. Across Canada and to rave reviews, she facilitates experiential workshops regarding Canada’s policy of assimilation and colonization with social workers, foster parents, health care workers, church communities, students and front line workers and communities in healing. Participants say that Kathi “is easy to learn from because of her gentle ways and her respect for all people.”

Special note to participants:
This workshop generates deep discussions about residential schools which may trigger unresolved grief and loss issues for some. Please take this into careful consideration before choosing to attend.
