Celebrate National Indigenous Month

June is National Indigenous History Month – a time for all of us to honor the resiliency, strength contributions and sacrifices of Indigenous people.

At Girl Guides, are incredibly proud and deeply grateful for the contributions of Indigenous girls, women and Two-Spirit folks in Guiding, past, present and future.

Celebrating Indigenous history emphasizes pride in being Indigenous. It is also a way for non-Indigenous people and newcomers to reflect and learn together.

Below are some resources to help you:  

• Discover inspiring Indigenous trailblazers
• Learn about First Nations’ relationship to the land
  Watch the web series, Fiecre Girls: Indigenous Heroines – the first Indigenous superhero series created for Indigenous girls and youth
• Learning resources about First Nations, Inuit and Metis across Canada
• Read our Avoiding Cultural Appropriation resource
