About My Research
About My Research
My research program inquires into the ways that Métis women kinship connections specifically, the cultural role of Aunty (stories, methodology and methods), contribute to the health and wellbeing of generations of Métis women (Lii Faam Michif) and our relatives. The program privileges decolonizing methodologies at the forefront of meaningful social change, wellness and community-engaged research and teaching.

The photo in my site's header reflects the opening ceremony (along the South Saskatchewan River, St. Laurent region) for our Métis women's wellness research. We became the River Women Collective hosting the last commemoration of Walking With Our Sisters in Batoche, Saskatchewan in honor of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women's Lives.
