"A lot of students don’t see themselves in the standard curriculum, which sometimes lacks depth and doesn’t always present Indigenous people kindly, said Carrier Sekani Tribal Chief Mina Holmes, whose council represents seven nations in the northern interior. 'There’s racism in the material, but also in the system itself,' said Holmes."

On November 20th, our sister organization Carrier Sekani Family Services will be recognizing National Child Day by hosting the grand opening of the new Prince George Youth Centre Mark your calendars for November 20th, as CSFS will broadcast the opening of the youth centre live @ 9:00am! Mussi cho.
