SUMMARY:Spotlight on Ageism (Online Presentation)
DESCRIPTION:Let’s talk about ageism. \nAgeism affects people of all ages – whether young or old\, many experience unfair judgments about their capabilities or status. It remains one of the most tolerated forms of discrimination in Canada\, but we have the power to change that. \nJoin us online as we explore what ageism looks like and how we can shift our mindset\, challenge stereotypes and promote respect for all generations. \nLet’s work together to create a more inclusive and age-positive society.  View event poster. \nEmail programs@bccrns.ca with any questions. \nRegister now!

SUMMARY:Upcoming Provincial Learning Event Webinar: Where Love Was Written Out – Healing the Heart of Colonization
DESCRIPTION:Following the National Day for Truth & Reconciliation\, Elder Norm Leech will help deepen our understanding of how colonization has created imbalance in the world\, particularly through the systemic exclusion of grandmothers’ wisdom\, compassion\, care\, and love from governance and decision-making structures. \nBefore colonization\, most cultures relied on the wisdom and counsel of elder women. For centuries\, however\, colonized systems have denied governments\, institutions\, and corporations access to that vital guidance—and the effects are still felt today. \nElder Norm Leech \nNorm Leech is Executive Director of Frog Hollow Neighbourhood House\, which serves the Renfrew Rupert area in East Vancouver with a variety of programs\, including childcare\, settlement services\, training\, youth programs\, family and seniors support\, and women’s services. \nNorm speaks widely on intergenerational trauma due to colonization. He is a member of the T’it’q’et community of the St’at’imc’ Nation where he has served as Chief and also Administrator. He draws on his experiences as a recovering alcoholic/addict\, and spiritual explorer to inform his current work\, which includes involvement on several boards and committees\, such as the Vancouver Aboriginal Community Policing Centre and Downtown East Side Community Land Trust. \nRegister now!
