“I have benefited tremendously from the program by not only making great friends with my class peers but from also learning a great deal from our teachers and Elders of the program. I have learned a lot of information and cultural protocol that I would not necessarily have been given at the work place and this has helped me greatly in the community when it comes to relaying any personal experiences, so that I can connect with the people I work with and communities we help.”
