Kil Tlaasga (Brodie Swanson)

What stands out most in this role, is the importance of connecting to our Xaadaa cultural values. Connecting our community to these traditional values is imperative to our Indigenous way of being. To engage with our community members in programs tailored to promote cultural teachings is the main objective within my role. Presenting these opportunities in a safe, non-biased, culturally enriching environment is another equally important aspect of being on the Traditional Wellness Team. I look forward to connecting with our youth, my peers, and our elders in building relationships to strengthen our connections to our ancestral ways of life.
