Join us for an educational and interactive event exploring mental health, wellness, and food insecurity with Sr. Runda Ebied and Dr. Munir El Kassem.
This event is presented in partnership with the St. Thomas Islamic Centre and funded by the Elgin-St. Thomas Community Foundation.
We look forward to welcoming youth from the community for an afternoon of learning, discussion, and connection.
Lunch will be provided to all guests!
Every night, thousands of women and children in Canada face homelessness, poverty, and trauma. We are on a mission to change that.
While Sakeenah functions at a national level, our head office and The People’s Market operate out of land that is part of the Treaty and Traditional Territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, The Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Huron-Wendat and Wyandot Nations.
Sakeenah believes that while a land acknowledgement is the first step, we also understand that land acknowledgements alone are not sufficient to redress the harm caused by centuries of land theft, forced displacement and ongoing acts of settler colonialism. We recognize that this work is ongoing and complex, and we are dedicated to doing our part to create a better future for all.
