We are honoured to share that The Heritage Community Association has partnered with Caring Hearts to host monthly Healing Circles for Missing & Murdered Indigenous People.

These circles ae a sacred space to gather in community – to honour our loved ones, share our stories, sit with our grief, and strengthen one another through culture, compassion, and connection. Together we remember those who have taken, acknowledge the families and communities who continue to carry this burden, and walk the path of healing side by side.

All are welcome to join us in creating a space of remembrance, healing, and hope.

Together, we will:
• Connect with others who understand the caregiving journey
• Share in a safe, welcoming, and supportive space
• Explore self-care practices and practical coping tools
• Build resilience and feel supported along the way

You spend so much time caring for others.
This is time to care for you, too.
