Truth and Reconciliation at YWCA Saskatoon

YWCA Saskatoon operates on Treaty 6 Territory – the traditional homeland of the Nehiyaw and Nehithaw Cree, Dene, Nahkawe Saulteaux, Dakota, Lakota and Nakoda peoples, as well as the homeland of the Métis.

We pay our respect to the First Peoples and caretakers of this land and affirm our commitment to authentic, meaningful and action-led truth and reconciliation. We commit to creating a safe and inclusive environment that honours the diverse cultures, histories, and experiences of Indigenous Peoples. Together, we strive for truth, reconciliation, and a future of mutual respect and understanding.
