The Emerging Lives Initiative acknowledges that the land on which we gather today is the traditional unceded territory of the Anishinaabe Algonquin people.
We honor their enduring connection to this land, their history, and their culture. As we work, live, and learn here, we commit to recognizing their ongoing contributions and to building respectful relationships with Indigenous communities.
We strive for reconciliation, understanding, and a more just future for all.
