Guiding the path towards reconciliation
The Indigenous Committee was established to provide information, awareness, and education to Indigenous CUPE members in the province. The Committee builds membership capacity and participation in the support of campaigns and activities promoting the rights of Indigenous members in the workplace, and in society more broadly.
Working with an Elder, the Committee promotes awareness of Indigenous issues, supports community events, plans gatherings, and helps guide CUPE BC’s commitment to reconciliation.
