With only 8 days left until the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on Monday, September 30, 2024, you still have time to choose a few activities from our “National Indigenous Peoples Day” cards that were given out on June 16 and 23 this year. Please use the week ahead to learn more or participate in activities centered around First Nations, Inuit and Metis people. Some good ideas can be found at this link: www.hrdownloads.com/blog/article/prepare-for-national-day-for-truth-and-reconciliation-2023/

Thanksgiving weekend is three weeks away! There are several charities in Edmonton who host Thanksgiving dinner for the people they serve, such as the Bissell Centre, Mustard See and Hope Mission.
