June is National Indigenous History Month in Canada, a time to recognize First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples who have called this land home since time immemorial.
The design in this years graphic shows three symbols to represent each community – a feather, narwhal, and fiddle – flowing… together in connection. The rainbow colours celebrate how diverse and rich our Indigenous cultures are across Canada.
This month we encourage you to truly learn about Indigenous cultures and traditions directly from Indigenous voices, and to reflect on our shared history and how we can all support reconciliation. As a child welfare organization, we're committed to this work through building relationships with local Indigenous communities and working to reduce the number of Indigenous children in care.

Children and youth thrive when connected to family and community.
At HPCAS, we know how important it is for young people to maintain ties to their culture and heritage – essential parts of their unique identity. This is why we work to keep children within their circle of love whenever …possible.
We partner with parents, caregivers and community to provide equitable and culturally aligned services. When children need protection, we search for extended family and trusted kin who can provide safe environments while maintaining important identity connections.
Every child deserves a network of caring adults they can count on.
