La Journée des peuples autochtones est l'occasion de célébrer la résilience, les cultures uniques et les modes de connaissance, et de mettre en lumière la brillance des autochtones !

Please note ICA will be closed from December 22 - January 7, 2024, to rest, reconnect, and reclaim time!

ICA has been working to enact new processes to help support our Indigenous leaders to be able to heal, to work, and to live within the context of our hurting world. We came to a place where finally addressing this was not just the right thing to do, but the necessary thing to do.

ICA’s Executive Director, Eriel Deranger, made a courageous decision to take time away from climate justice work to ensure care for the health and wellbeing of her and her loved ones. This post speaks to the need for healing justice and how people can support this important work.

Our Executive Director, Eriel, is going on a sabbatical for a few months. Here is why she is going on this healing journey, in her words.
