National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

National Day for Truth and Reconciliation


On National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we at Red Tree Wellness are taking pause to honour the 150,000 Indigenous children who survived or perished in residential schools. We also reflect on the communities that continue to experience the deep impact of the residential school system’s legacy, and are reminded of how critical it is that we all strive to contribute to the process of truth and reconciliation.
We recognize that serious disparities exist in healthcare for Indigenous people, and therefore commit to the following actions:
????Fostering our cultural competence by continually learning about Indigenous health perspectives.
????Seeking input from Indigenous patients on how best to support their health journey.
????Supporting equitable healthcare access for Indigenous people.
????Creating a welcoming healing space for all.
