Land Acknowledgement
Victim Services Huron Perth acknowledges that we are situated on the traditional lands of the Anishinaabeg, Haudenosaunee, and Neutral peoples. These lands are covered by the Upper Canada Treaties and the Dish with One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, an agreement to share and care for the resources of this land in peace and harmony.
We recognize the deep and enduring connections that First Nations, Métis, and Inuit peoples have to this land and honour their histories, traditions, and contributions.
As we provide support to those impacted by crime and tragedy, we commit to fostering respectful relationships with Indigenous communities, acknowledging the historical and ongoing effects of colonization, and contributing to the ongoing work of truth and reconciliation.
