We promote the end to lateral violence in the name of peace, productivity and prosperity



In This Issue:

Practice Lateral Kindness on Pink Shirt Day (and everyday!)

Lateral Kindness is an approach to address lateral violence based on Indigenous values that promote social harmony and healthy relationships.

Practicing Lateral Kindness can be a powerful tool in decolonization and is part of our collective healing as Indigenous peoples

This Pink Shirt Day, our focus is on working together and treating others with dignity and respect. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected us all and shown the importance of helping one another and advocating for those who need it. Help us “lift each other up” and support programs that encourage healthy self esteem and teach empathy, compassion and kindness.

Head to Heart - Journey to Wellness

Be a Source of Strength for Someone

Support is really a two-way street, and showing empathy is a reciprocal process. Often, we wonder where our support networks are when we're down, but haven't taken the time to create those networks around ourselves. Be there for someone else, and you'll find that they'll be there for you!
