Land Acknowledgement
​
The Nurtured By Nature Mental Health and Wellness Society would like to respectfully acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land on which we work and pay respect to the Indigenous Peoples and their Elders, past, present and future. We acknowledge their strength and resilience and are honoured to journey with them on the path to healing and reconciliation.
We would also like to acknowledge that as we gather for our offerings, that they are on the traditional meeting place and home for many Indigenous peoples, including the Blackfoot, Stoney Nakota, Tsuu’tina, Piikani, Cree, Dene, Inuit and Métis peoples, as identified in Treaty 7, and Métis Region 3 territory.
