Kairos Blanket Exercise

You’re invited to attend the Kairos Blanket Exercise

Staff members in the Lower Mainland of BC and Alberta are invited to participate in a Kairos Blanket Exercise session to be held in:

· Bonnyville, AB on Wednesday March 28th from 1 – 4:30 pm; and

· Port Coquitlam on Friday April 27th from 9:00 am to noon.

This is an experiential exercise, which provides insight into the multiple impacts of residential schools, treaty negotiations, policy and the fundamental relationships between Indigenous People and the Canadian government on the Indigenous experience in Canada.

We are committed to facilitating as much participation as possible. All staff will be paid to attend and costs for back filling within programs will be covered by WJS administration.

We encourage anyone who has not experienced the Kairos Blanket Exercise or who wishes to experience it again, to let your supervisor know as soon as possible. Final approval to attend will be based on ability to cover program needs. To confirm your space in this session, please email Dawn Yuen who will be happy to assist in confirming your registration. This is but one small step in our Truth and Reconciliation Journey, I look forward to sharing this experience with you.
