Stories of Healing and Strength

Storytelling is at the heart of how we build understanding and spark change. At Mentee, we use film, photography, and digital media to share the knowledge and solutions emerging from Indigenous communities. This video was produced by Jason (Co-Founder of Mentee) during his work as a project lead with the National Centre for Collaboration in Indigenous Education, and offers a look inside the A:yelexw Center for Hope and Healing in the Seabird Island community, which provides vital support for men on their healing journeys.
