Centring Indigenous Health & Wellness
October 2025

We’re celebrating the unveiling of Indigenous artworks at partner health-care organizations across our region—pieces that encourage reflection and reconciliation for clients, families, and staff, while making our spaces more welcoming and culturally safe.
