Reconciliation and Social Work and Social Service Work Practice

The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) of Canada helped put a spotlight on the ugly history and legacy of Canada’s residential school system. In his keynote address, Indigenous rights scholar Jeffrey Ansloos draws upon his extensive experience in the community, clinical and social policy settings to discuss the work of the TRC and how members of the College can take up the TRC’s calls to action for reconciliation. Jeffrey explores how social workers and social service workers can integrate and apply their knowledge in relation to those calls to action.
