West Central Women’s Resource Centre is committed to being an active partner in the work of reconciliation between settlers and Indigenous people. We are moving forward in our journey towards reconciliation through a commitment to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action. Last year we committed to dedicating resources and taking action on five identified Calls that most directly impact our work.
