A core belief we have at LPC is that healthy and thriving workplaces are built through intentional relationships, shared accountability, respectful communication, and the ability to navigate change and conflict together.

Built on this foundational belief, Strengthening the Circle is a new one or two-day interactive session that offers practical tools and shared language to help participants approach conflict with curiosity, support psychological safety, and build cultures of learning, accountability, and repair.

Designed for teams, leaders, HR professionals, and organizations, Strengthening the Circle is grounded in Indigenous pedagogy and informed by decolonizing, trauma, and equity-informed approaches. This lens allows critical insight into how our experiences, relationships, workplace conditions, and the ongoing influence of colonial workplace structures shape how we work together. Through this exploration, Stengthening the Circle offers innovative and meaningful ways to strengthen teams.

Today, on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, also known as Orange Shirt Day, we honour Survivors, remember and mourn the children who never returned home, and hold close the families and communities who continue to live with the generational impacts of residential schools.

Truth must come before reconciliation. Truth asks us to listen without turning away. Truth guides us to learn the history and its effects, and truth leads us to recognize and celebrate the strength, resistance, and resurgence of Indigenous peoples.

Through years of our own work, we’ve learned that reconciliation is an ongoing responsibility expressed through relationships, accountability, and action. For organizations, professionals and individuals, that means examining the policies, practices, beliefs and systems we have inherited and asking what responsibilities we carry to transform our future.
May today be a day of remembrance, care and action. May it also renew our commitment to carry truth into what we do tomorrow and every day that follows.

How are you honouring this important day? What responsibilities can you carry forward into the year ahead?

In case you missed it: When the Work Harms the Worker is now available to watch on our Youtube.

In this session, Lise Gillies examines Indigenous-specific psychosocial hazards within cultural safety, reconciliation, and anti-racism work. The conversation asks us to look beyond isolated interpersonal conflict and pay attention to the conditions that allow harm to repeat: cultural load, moral distress, unclear roles, unsafe reporting pathways, responsibility without authority, and under-resourced Indigenous leadership.

The recording offers practical reflection for leaders, professionals, and change-makers who want to:
• recognize patterned structural risk
• examine how workload, authority, responsibility, and risk are distributed
• build safer, more sustainable roles and systems without individualizing blame.

After watching, we'd love to know: what is one condition your organization can change so the people leading this work are better protected and supported?

All minds are sacred. When autism and neurodivergence are understood only through clinical, compliance-based, or deficit-focused lenses, systems can miss what matters: a person’s gifts, communication, relationships, cultural context, dignity, and place in community.

Journeying Together invites a different conversation. Grounded in Indigenous leadership, lived experience, research, family knowledge, and relationship, this gathering will explore compassionate and non-coercive responses to distress; strengths-based and sensory-informed support; and the importance of belonging, consent, and communication.

Speakers Dr. Louis Busch, Dr. Grant Bruno, Allison Balfour, and Len Pierre will bring distinct perspectives to a shared invitation: to move beyond asking how people should fit systems and toward asking how systems can honour the many ways people learn, sense, communicate, relate, and belong.

Join us Saturday, November 28 in Surrey, BC or via livestream access
Community and professional ticket rates are available.

When responsibility is high but authority, resources, and safety are low, the harm may be a sign of how the work has been structured.

Join Lise Gillies for When the Work Harms the Worker, a 90-minute online webinar about Indigenous-specific psychosocial hazards in cultural safety, reconciliation, and anti-racism work.

Together, we will examine cultural load, moral distress, unclear roles, unsafe reporting pathways, and the under-resourcing of Indigenous leadership—and consider how to build safer, more sustainable roles and systems.

Registration is now open for Journeying Together: Indigenous Perspectives on Autism & Neurodivergence.

Taking place in Surrey on November 28th, 2026 and by live-stream, this community-centred gathering creates space for a different kind of conversation, led by Indigenous knowledge, culture, lived experience, research, and relationship.

Together with Louis Busch, Dr. Grant Bruno, Allison Balfour, and Len Pierre, participants will explore how colonial ideas of “normal,” behavioural compliance, and deficit-based support have shaped systems of care, education, diagnosis, and intervention. We will also consider what becomes possible when support is grounded in dignity, belonging, consent, communication, and the understanding that all minds are sacred.

This gathering welcomes Indigenous communities and organizations, families and caregivers, Autistic and Neurodivergent people, educators, healthcare and social-service professionals, and others seeking culturally grounded, relationship-centred approaches.

Community and professional rates are available for both in-person and online attendance.

September invites us to explore and deepen our commitment to Truth and Reconciliation as ongoing work grounded in learning, relationship, and action. As we move toward the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30th, consider choosing actions you can carry beyond this month:

-Listen to Survivors and uplift and learn from Indigenous voices
-Read the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action and identify one connected to your role or sector. Commit to honouring that call.
-Support Indigenous-led organizations, artists, events, and businesses.
-Bring what you learn on your decolonizing journey back to your team, policies, and everyday practice.

One opportunity to gather and learn this month is the fifth annual stɑl̓əw̓ Pow Wow. Presented by the Indigenous women-led stɑl̓əw̓ Arts & Cultural Society, everyone is welcome to attend September 11-13 at the Langley Events Centre. Indigenous-led gatherings like this offer a great opportunity to experience music, dance, food and community. As guests, we can arrive with respect and curiosity, follow the guidance of hosts, and remember that attending is part of a longer responsibility to listen and act. We hope to see you there!
