Indigenous History Month

June is Indigenous History Month

Since June 2009, the month has been used nationally to honour the history, heritage, culture, and accomplishments of Indigenous people.

The AECEO is committed to highlighting Indigenous Early Learning & Care leaders and practitioners, but we acknowledge that our efforts must go beyond promotion and collective learning.

Allocating our resources and leveraging our positioning power in the Ontario ELCC sector to bring about transformative change that is inclusive and accessible to the Indigenous community must always be prioritized.
