The Indigenous Thought Leaders Series is intended to Enhance Indigenous Innovations and Relationships in Child Intervention Service Delivery.
Selected Elders, advisers, and service providers share Indigenous teachings and current practices in work with Indigenous children, families, and individuals. The presentations showcase specific culturally-based approaches to practice and ceremony with indigenous service users. The individual presentations include teachings from highly respected elders and knowledge keepers in Alberta. Various Alberta-based programs providing culturally appropriate and effective services are highlighted. The presentations give the viewer the opportunity to explore how they can utilize the guidelines and principles in policy development and service delivery
