June 2021, GIMLI, MB. As all Canadians reflect on the trauma and harm of our collective past, we are seeking ways to heal. Aurora Recovery Centre is pleased to announce that we have partnered with Indigenous Awareness Canada to undertake organization-wide training. The program is designed to create greater understanding and enhance communications between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people and is based on the belief that building of trusting and respectful relationships will occur through awareness, comfort, confidence, and much improved communications.
“There is a tremendous need for change and much needed education and training. The link between trauma and addiction is clear. We are grateful for the guidance of the team at Indigenous Awareness Training as they work with our entire staff, helping us to better understand the past in order to work together to find a way forward. We are humbled by IAC’s willingness to help us learn“, said Steve Low, President and COO of Aurora.
