Just happened across this one day on facebook. A well developed page for this group out of Toronto. If you’re on facebook, like them today!
They also have a website. From the website:
The Native Canadian Centre of Toronto is an Aboriginal community cultural centre. The Centre offers multiple programs including cultural education which I found very interesting as this centre is based in Toronto, urban area. Culture can be kept alive anywhere.
Here is a listing of available programs.
Aboriginal Education Outreach Program
The Aboriginal Education Outreach Program (AEOP) is an interactive project that has been set up to promote and foster a greater understanding of Native People in North America and their distinct cultures.
Aboriginal Circle of Life Services Program (ACOLS)
The Aboriginal Circle of Life Services Program is designed to provide a supportive environment for Aboriginal people residing in the Greater Toronto Area through the delivery of client centred services enabling them to live independently in their homes.
Cultural Program
The Cultural Program here at the Native Canadian Centre plays an important role in educating and providing services for the members of the centre.
Dodem Kanonhsa
DODEM KANONHSA’ Elder’s Cultural Facility is a learning and sharing facility which fosters greater acceptance, understanding and harmony between members of First Nations and Non-Aboriginal People.
Communications & Referral Office
The Native Canadian Centre of Toronto provides Information and Referral Services (C&R) that connect people in the community with service providers, information and/or linkage with other Aboriginal or Non-Aboriginal agencies.
Martial Arts Program
The Native Canadian Centre of Toronto is pleased to offer Okichitaw classes to members of the NCCT.
Toronto Native Community History Program and Bus Tour
The Toronto Native Community History Project (TNCHP) was founded in 1995 and our current work revolves around three key components: Popular Education, Resource Centre and Youth Involvement. We also offer tours of Toronto from the Aboriginal perspective.
Youth Program
We are currently seeking energetic youth from the Native and non-Native community to become involved in our activities. These activities include volleyball, basketball, hockey, and all kinds of other activities.
