The following is a detailed report on our TRC Commitments for the year. WCWRC is committed to working towards reconciliation between settlers and Indigenous people. We are moving towards reconciliation through a commitment to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action. Last year we chose to dedicate resources and take action on 5 Calls that directly impact our work.
