Reconciliation at the Winnipeg Centre of Hope: Corinne Peterkin

As we prepare to mark the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30, we sit down with Corinne Peterkin, who is the Indigenous liaison at The Salvation Army’s Centre of Hope in Winnipeg. Corinne shares some of her own personal story as a Sixties Scoop survivor, and she walks us through the many ways the Centre of Hope is living the journey of reconciliation today. As she notes, reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples is not a one-day thing, and she offers some really helpful, practical suggestions for how Salvationists and other ministry units can practise reconciliation as well. Further Reading and ResourcesWho We Are by Murray Sinclair (audiobook recommended)For Joshua by Richard Wagamese (audiobook recommended)You Were Made for This World edited by Stephanie Sinclair and Sara SinclairNational Centre for Truth and Reconciliation website
