Indigenous Allyship Toolkit
The Indigenous Allyship Toolkit: A guide to honouring culture, authentic collaboration and addressing discrimination, has been prepared by the Hamilton Niagara Haldimand Brant Indigenous Health Network in partnership with the Hamilton Niagara Haldimand Brant Local Health Integration Network (HNHB LHIN) to support health care providers in addressing inequities.
Recognizing there are many existing resources available on this subject created by elders, knowledge keepers and experts, this toolkit is a compilation of these resources and reflection exercises to deepen understanding and provide practical techniques to aid in your journey of self-awareness and allyship.
This toolkit is intended to provide essential resources that will inspire settlers to advocate for social justice for Indigenous people and to appropriately act upon anti-Indigenous racism.
