Moving Upstream
Acknowledgements
We acknowledge both the land we stand on and the misguided efforts of those tasked with helping, who have historically hurt our communities, instead. May we do better. May we move together towards safer spaces that promote wellbeing for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples who now inhabit this land.
Acknowledging
"Helpers" Who... Haven't Been So "Helpful"
Our community engagement events are intentionally designed in response to history of "helpers" who have at times caused more harm than good; leaving behind traumatic scars in communities who were already vulnerable; communities who were in need of care, and were harmed, instead. Among the many examples of this history is the Tuskegee Trials.
