About this listen
Building on discussions of systemic racism, this episode explores the lasting impacts of child welfare and justice systems on Indigenous families and communities. The conversation draws parallels between residential schools, the Sixties Scoop, and present-day child welfare practices, highlighting how trauma continues through punitive systems. Marlene explains why healing-centred approaches matter, where jurisdictional gaps persist, and why Indigenous-led solutions require meaningful provincial and federal support to succeed.
Join REACH Edmonton’s Jan Fox and Native Counselling Services of Alberta’s Marlene Orr, as they explore the history of settler-Indigenous relations, what it means to be an ally, and how we can build a better future together.
