Host A Session
What is Every One Every Day?
We are a participation-based Truth and Reconciliation Initiative out of the Mi’kmaw Native Friendship Centre located in Kjipuktuk / Halifax. We offer both space and materials to support residents as they share what they know, love, or are interested in with neighbours. We believe building an environment of inclusive and meaningful participation in and among neighbourhoods will create co-created, cooperative communities.
