At Their Collective, we acknowledge that we are situated on the traditional lands of Indigenous peoples across Canada. We recognize the history and ongoing relationship that Indigenous communities have with these lands, and we honor the diverse cultures, languages, and traditions that enrich this territory.

In Treaty 2, where co-founder Megan Johnston resides, we acknowledge the Anishinaabe and Métis peoples, who have stewarded this land for generations. In Treaty 6, where co-founder Chelsea Bleau resides, we honor the Cree, Saulteaux, Nakota, and Dene peoples, among others, who have long-standing connections to this territory. We acknowledge the impact of colonization and the importance of decolonization efforts to restore Indigenous sovereignty and rights. We recognize the significance of the land to their cultural identity, spiritual practices, and community well-being.

As a national mental health business, we commit to best practices in cultural safety and trauma-informed care, ensuring that we respect and honor the stories of all individuals we serve. We understand that our work is situated within a broader context of reconciliation and healing, and we strive to actively support Indigenous voices in our initiatives.

Our policies state that we must always first attempt to access a 2SLGBTQIAP+, Neurodivergent, or Indigenous contractor or employee. Amplifying Indigenous voices is a role we take very seriously, and we are dedicated to ensuring that these perspectives are not only heard but also celebrated in our programs and practices.

Both Meg and Chelsea maintain personal anti-racism practices, recognizing that this is essential work we hope to facilitate at Their Collective. We aim to create an inclusive environment where everyone can engage in meaningful conversations about race, privilege, and systemic oppression.

We pledge to pay Indigenous artists, educators, and mental health professionals generously for their contributions and to elevate their expertise within our offerings. We believe in building meaningful relationships with Indigenous communities, recognizing that our collective healing and growth depend on honoring and respecting their rights and histories.
