Dear Arthritis Community Member,
During his visit to Canada July 25 to 29, 2022, Pope Francis is expected to deliver a fulsome apology on Canadian soil for the Catholic Church’s role in running Indian Residential Schools, which would address Call to Action #58 from the Truth and Reconciliation Commission Report (2016).
Arthritis Consumer Experts invites you to a special webinar featuring a 60-minute presentation by Dr. Terri-Lynn Fox, who will share her experiences as an Indigenous Scholar and woman of the Blood Tribe and present her research on Indian Residential Schools, followed by a 30-minute moderated question and answer session.

Date: Wednesday, July 20, 2022, 9am to 10:30am PDT (90 minutes)
