This program is free and open to UM students and members of the wider community who want to learn how to work in good ways with low-income communities.

Student Affairs – Leaders in cultivating exceptional student experiences!
The University of Manitoba campuses are located on original lands of Anishinaabeg, Ininewuk, Anisininewuk, Dakota Oyate and Denesuline, and on the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. I am grateful to live and work in Treaty One Territory, and to have access to water from Shoal Lake #40 First Nation and hydroelectricity generated on the lands of many Indigenous communities in Northern Manitoba. As a descendant of refugees and immigrants who settled on Indigenous lands, I commit to challenging anti-Indigenous racism and supporting the work and leadership of Indigenous communities.
