More than 20 years ago when new customary care came laws into effect, there were a lot of stories that were told. That’s how the laws came into being — through the stories of the Elders, the youth and middle-aged people. We know there are more stories out there; we just need to bring them out. That is how our laws are going to take develop. We believe your stories can help shape our laws.
That is why we want your stories brought forward. Only from there can we can start to break trail together for our children. This way, our children and youth can know our history, our ways of living. Only then will we know how to begin.
Let us hear your stories. At the community level, we want to listen and learn how you want to take over child and family wellbeing services for your children. We are are to help alongside Tikinagan.
