Colonialism has left many scars on our collective knowledge and history. The impacts on our past, present, and future are complex, leaving many of us feeling overwhelmed. Indigenous Voices, Community Action presentations aim to increase knowledge, share stories, and foster understanding and reconciliation in our community.

Join us to learn from the Sixties Scoop Indigenous Society of BC who are dedicated to supporting survivors of the Sixties Scoop, which resulted in thousands of Indigenous children being taken from their communities and placed in mostly white foster and adoptive homes from the 1950s to the early 1990s. Learn about the work they are doing to improve the lives of survivors and more.

Free. Registration Required. (Ages 16+) Light refreshments will be served.

Our free events are made possible by our members and generous donations. To learn about membership benefits visit this link. To make a donation visit here.

Coquitlam Heritage gratefully acknowledges funding from the Province of British Columbia for this program.
