June is National Indigenous Peoples Month. This is a time to honour the rich history, resilience, and diversity of First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples. It is an opportunity to reflect on historical and current injustices and commit to true reconciliation in Canada.
The First Nations, Métis and Inuit Committee would like to share some events and resources with you and encourage you to participate in events in your area.

Being an API member in Canada or the U.S can sometimes feel isolating. You might not have seen yourself in leadership. You may not have always felt seen or understood. But you can find a home with us. We believe in you. We see you. And most importantly, you belong.
Welcome home.
There is currently a vacancy on the SEIU-West Executive Board for members that work for the Community Based Organizations Sector.

In recent years, many people have changed the way in which they acknowledge Canada Day. Following the shock of the discovery of thousands of unmarked graves of Indigenous children at residential schools cross Canada, many allies came together to honour Indigenous communities and to raise awareness of the historical and ongoing harms to Indigenous people in Canada. Some communities are shifting to traditional celebrations of Canada, while others have opted to acknowledge Canada Day as a day for mourning and solidarity with Indigenous people.
The SEIU-West Political Action & Education Department is pleased to invite members to apply for the first ever Build Power, Win Justice two-day conference, taking place at Living Skies Casino in Swift Current on October 18 and 19th, 2023.
