Tomorrow is National Indigenous Peoples Day! Umbrella gratefully and respectfully operates on the traditional and unceded territory of the Lekwungen speaking peoples. We invite you to join us in acknowledging and celebrating the rich history, culture, and importance of the Indigenous Peoples. You may wish to join in some of the celebrations around town, and we would like to take a moment to highlight some Indigenous-run community partners that are doing great work in our community:
Victoria Native Friendship Centre
Did you know? Umbrella is also fortunate to have an Indigenous Outreach Team (IOT) of experienced and compassionate Outreach Workers who provide culturally safe and appropriate peer support to those who are struggling with substance use. If you would like more information, please give us a call or reach out at wecanhelp@umbrellasociety.ca
