Join us to celebrate National Indigenous Languages Day by honouring the Michif Language. 💙

We also honour the important work of the Indigenous Apprenticeship Program (IAP) at Gabriel Dumont Institute, as a collaborative oyateki Partnership initiative.🪶

(IAP) engages Indigenous youth in apprenticeship programs by pairing youth with employers to work in a career trade of their choice, become indentured, attend technical training, and work toward achieving journeyperson status. Youth build trade time hours through continual employment while building technical and workplace skills. ✨

Jonah’s high school journey was more meaningful thanks to B.I.R.M. (Building Intercultural Resilience Mentorship Program)! Through B.I.R.M., Jonah felt empowered to be proud of who they are, learn more Indigenous culture, and get ready for life after graduation and into post-secondary. Now Jonah has come full circle, giving back as a mentor to other Indigenous high school youth. By sharing culture and supporting each other, the community grows stronger and opens doors for the next generation!
