WE’RE DEDICATED TO THE HEALTHY DEVELOPMENT OF
CHILDREN – YOUTH – FAMILIES
OUR COMMITMENT TO TRUTH AND RECONCILIATION
NOYFSS would like to acknowledge that we are on the unceded and ancestral lands of the Syilx peoples of the Okanagan Nation.
We recognize the devastation that colonization has caused to the Indigenous families and their culture. We are committed to be a support in the healing of children and families and acknowledge their inherent right to care for their own people in their own way and that Indigenous people never gave up their lands.
We are committed to stand with Indigenous families and community partners.
NOYFSS has adopted the United Nations Declaration on the Rights on Indigenous Peoples as a guideline for reconciliation.
