Often we don’t get the opportunity to learn how partnerships can impact individuals in the Nation, their families and quality of life
We often hear of Indigenous partnerships forming, and many organizations are seeking ways to partner with First Nation communities. Often with these partnerships, we learn of the path to reconciliation, and the benefits of economic development.
We wanted to meet in-person to chat, but Chipps-Roy was en route to Aberdeen in Scotland. In five weeks, Chipps-Roy will be heading home, and Charles will be heading out. The two women attended an info session in July and all members of the Nation were invited to join the program, receive education and possible employment.Charles worked as the housing manager for Beecher Bay and Chipps-Roy worked as a specialized educational assistant for the Sooke School District.
They both explained how it was a hard decision, and scary to take a leap of faith, but when I spoke with them their faces were lit up, they were so confident. Speaking with Chipps-Roy and Charles, their energy was uplifting, exciting, and I could tell just how much this opportunity has meant to them.
