This course is an opportunity to reflect, to listen, and to see more clearly the histories, experiences, and strengths of the Tla’amin people.
Designed for anyone who interacts with the Tla’amin Nation and or Tla’amin people, this course is an invitation to step forward with humility and curiosity, to strengthen relationships, and to walk a path of respect and reciprocity.
