Thousands of Indigenous children were harmed psychologically\, physically \, sexually and spiritually casting a soul wound across generations. For m ore than a decade survivor’s were making motions for legal and civil actio ns to be taken against the Canadian government and Churches. In 2007 a nat ional agreement was made to compensate survivors for the harm done to chil dren and families by church and state. The Settlement Agreement was reache d. The Settlement Agreement included five different types of elements to a ddress the legacy of Indian Residential Schools. In this session we will e xplore these elements. One of the elements is the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) which we will examine in detail. We will look at the pro cess of this historical commission over their years of operation and how t hey carefully approached survivors to gather the stories.\n \n Particular fo cus will be on the calls to action and what this means for Canadians. Part icipants will be invited to explore\, share views and find ways to engage in the calls to action via small breakout rooms.\n \n Prof. Wanda Gabriel\, Assistant Professor\, School of Social Work\, Co-Director Indigenous Acces s ɬÀï·¬.
