This student-led series aims to provide opportunities for uplifting and learning from the voices of Coast Salish People and local knowledges. 

Please join Jacqueline Jim and Elizabeth Prevost, Student Library and Leadership Assistant for Indigenous Initiatives, for a welcoming hour learning about Indigenous language revitalization and learning basic SENĆOŦEN, the Salish language of the W̱SÁNEĆ First Nation.
