We are thrilled to share that the Aboriginal Friendship Centre of Calgary (AFCC) has been featured in the Alberta Native News! This ad is dedicated to a very important message: Every Child Matters. Every Person Has a Place.
This September 30th, on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we honour the children who never returned home and the survivors of residential schools. Our ad highlights that safe, cultural spaces are not just important—they are essential. For decades, the AFCC has been that space for the urban Indigenous community, a place to heal, to gather, and to belong.
The work of reconciliation happens every day in Friendship Centres across the country. It happens when an Elder shares a story, when a youth learns to bead, and when a family finds the support they need. We invite you to read the full ad and reflect on this important message as we ask you to not only remember, but to act.
A place to heal, to gather, and to belong. Our ad in the Alberta Native News shares our message of healing and community building.
