Indigenous Reconciliation

Buds N Caterpillars Therapies acknowledge our responsibility to work towards reconciliation with our Indigenous neighbours. We have been called to action by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission to:

  • Respect the Treaties made on these territories.
  • Dedicate ourselves to understanding the trauma and harms experienced by Indigenous Peoples past and present.
  • Move forward with Indigenous Peoples in a spirit of reconciliation and collaboration to make Manitoba an inclusive and accessible place for everyone who lives here.

Privacy

Buds N Caterpillars Therapies is committed to respecting every person’s privacy and personal health information. We are privileged to walk alongside children, families, guardians, and communities on their healthcare journeys, and we will protect the agency of each individual with whom we engage.

Respect

Understanding that each client’s journey is unique, Buds N Caterpillars Therapies will work with clients as active partners. As they, their families, guardians, and circles of care providers overcome barriers and embrace full participation in everyday living, we will be intentional about fostering safe relationships throughout the therapy experience.

Land Acknowledgement

Buds N Caterpillars Therapies’ main office is located in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada on Treaty 1 territory. We are deeply grateful for the source of our water in Shoal Lake 40 First Nation. We provide services throughout Treaty territories 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 the ancestral lands of the Anisinew, Anishinaabeg, Cree, Saulteaux, Swampy Cree, Dakota, and Dene, and the homeland of the Metis nation. The lands we are on have been inhabited by indigenous peoples from the beginning and we are grateful to share in the beauty and provisions of this land. We respect the treaties made on these lands and are deeply saddened by the harms and mistakes, past and present that have dishonoured the treaties and our indigenous neighbours. We commit ourselves to engage in efforts that promote reconciliation, inclusion, and well-being for all.
