OUR MISSION
The Wa-Say Healing Centre Inc. mission is: “Understanding the History; Accepting the Present; Planning for the Future”.
Through our guidance and support services, an individual can implement their journey to healing and wellness.
Understanding the History: Wa-Say is open to all who are interested in understanding the history of the various attempts to assimilate and annihilate Indigenous people.
Accepting the Present: Today, many Survivors and their families are beginning to accept and understand the effects of their experiences, the impacts in their lives, families and communities.
Planning for the Future: Wa-Say aims to help individuals, knowing and understanding our healing is shared. This brings healing to our families, and helps to restore healthy communities by reclaiming our ancestral ways through ceremony and relationships with each other. Healing is continuous.
