Land Acknowledgement

Care Wellness respectfully acknowledges that we operate on the traditional lands of the Treaty 7 and Treaty 6 territories. These lands are the ancestral and traditional territories of many Indigenous Peoples, including the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Kainai, and Piikani Nations), the Tsuut’ina Nation, the Stoney Nakoda Nations, the Cree, Saulteaux, Nakota Sioux, Dene, and the Métis Nation of Alberta.

We honour the histories, cultures, and enduring connections Indigenous Peoples have to these lands. Care Wellness is committed to ongoing learning, reflection, and growth, and to engaging in meaningful actions that support reconciliation through respectful relationships with Indigenous communities.
