Welcome to our first ‘real’ episode of season 3! Real as in we have an actual interview so you don’t have to just listen to us gab. Meet our good friend Jenna and welcome to season 3 - Distorted Path: Indigenous Stories of the Child Welfare System! ?Ixc’amgilakw /Jenna has done so many cool things but over the past year (happy 1 year Jenna) she’s been working as the Urban Community Engagement Lead at South Island Indigenous Authority, an organization supporting South Island Nations to regain jurisdiction over their child and family services. One of the biggest themes Jenna sees in her work is the importance of involving family and bringing culture back into this work. Jenna loves the work that she does, and recognizes that it’s soooooo important to take care of yourself and support your team members so everyone can keep going. —-------Show notes - you can check out the good work of South Island Indigenous Authority and check out Paddling Together, the report Jenna talks about in the podcast here https://siia.ca/welcome-to-siia-ca/
