Every Child Matters – Penelakut: Returning to the Healing Circle

M’akola Housing Society presents

Free community film screening. Tickets can be reserved by phone or in-person at the Ticket Centre. Recommended 16+.

Let’s gather as a community to reflect on the impacts of residential schools and their ongoing effects on Indigenous communities. Together, we can deepen our understanding, honour the stories of those affected by colonization and residential school, and promote healing.
