In support of our members, AUMA is pleased to release A Municipal Guide on the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action. This short document is designed to help municipal leaders understand the calls to action that are most relevant to Alberta municipal governments in terms of scope of responsibility and applicability to municipal service delivery.
It also shares examples of how municipal governments like Calgary, Edmonton, Lethbridge, and Canmore are taking steps to support reconciliation.
Based on the high demand for these sessions, AUMA and the Rural Municipalities of Alberta will work to schedule more workshops in the near future. Additional dates will be announced in a future issue of Digest. Thank you for your remarkable interest and support.
