Honouring the Caregiver - An Indigenous-led Wellness Initiative

Aide Canada & Pacific Autism Family Network
'Honouring the Caregiver' was an Indigenous-led wellness and self-care initiative for First Nations caregivers of neurodiverse children and adults. This video was filmed during the Six Nations workshop, which integrated conventional self-care approaches with Indigenous helping and healing wisdom.

This pilot project was born out of recognition of the unique challenges faced by First Nations caregivers; challenges rooted in the enduring impacts of colonization and the inequities within our health, education, and social service systems that doubly impact our neurodiverse relatives and their families.
