Project Support: Urban Aboriginal Intergenerational Landed Learning Project
The Society has partnered with Grandview School, an inner city school with approximately 45% aboriginal students, the University of British Columbia and 16 other native and non-native organizations to develop a pilot intergenerational healing garden and fish smokehouse on traditional Musqueam Territory. Funds support hiring a cultural coordinator to plan and implement workshops and ensure that Coast Salish protocols are observed in the garden and smokehouse. The project will primarily serve at-risk, homeless and street youth.
