Overview – Two Rows Together: An Appreciation Series

This session is part of the Township’s broader commitment to learning, reconciliation, and creating inclusive spaces and services. This event is part of the Two Rows Together: An Appreciation Series that was designed in parallel with the creation of the Use of Indigenous-Themed Names, Logos and Images within or on Township Properties and Facilities Policy. The series is part of the Pathway to Respectful Indigenous Representation that the Township is committed to. This is the fourth event in the series, following the third event, Moments of Storytelling to Strengthen Reconciliation, an annual partnership with Dalton Associates, which took place on National Day for Truth and Reconciliation (September 30).
