Project of Heart - Healthcare and the Children of the Qu’Appelle Industrial School

Join Luther College at the University of Regina for the eighth and final session of a free eight-part series where participants will learn about the health care that the children detained at the Qu’Appelle Industrial School received. Although many of the stories in this series are from several generations ago, and the physical spaces where they unfolded have disappeared from the regional landscape and the settlers’ collective memory, this history still has repercussions on Indigenous communities today.

Project of Heart facilitates a safe space for reciprocal learning where stories are shared alongside historic context and with art activism. This program responds to the Calls to Action outlined in the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, and is identified as a recommended activity by the Commission.

All new Project of Heart content on the healthcare and the children of the Qu’Appelle Industrial School.

In this series, learn about:

• The colonial healthcare services imposed on the Indigenous children detained at the Qu'Appelle Industrial School.
• The role of the Qu'Appelle Industrial School in colonial healthcare and the other public health initiatives directed at Indigenous peoples in the Qu'Appelle Valley.

All are welcome! This series is offered at no charge.
