We would like to extend our deepest appreciation to our funders, supporters, and partners who were instrumental in IYILS 2017 coming to fruition! 

​

We gratefully acknowledge the financial support of the Province of British Columbia through the Ministry of Aboriginal Relations and Reconciliation, the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development and the BC Public Service Agency. 

The Provincial Health Services Authority - Indigenous Youth Wellness program has supported our vision and has added immeasurable value to our project. We thank you deeply for your financial support and the spirit of your team.  

 

We would also like to thank the Aboriginal Youth Internship Program, the Canadian Human Rights Commission - Promotion Branch, Vancity, Sacred Fire Foundation, the University of Victoria’s Indigenous Governance Program, the UBC First Nations House of Learning and the Museum of Anthropology. 

 

And last, but not least, thank you to our working group of Indigenous young leaders, our wonderful and generous volunteers and our little team, Sarah Boivin and Morgan Mowatt.  We couldn’t have done it without you!
