Finding Our Power Together

Finding Our Power Together is a collaborative partnership between young people in remote First Nations communities and Indigenous and non-Indigenous allies in southern Ontario. The initiative was founded in 2016 by members of the Nibinamik First Nation Youth Council and researchers at Ryerson University. We started as a way to grow connections between Indigenous communities across Turtle Island in order to share a message of hope and solidarity, particularly to save our young people from preventable death. We collectively understand the value in bringing together young people and community members from various communities to share resources and maintain connection; We know we can find our power together.
