The Schizophrenia Society of Alberta operates within the traditional territories of Treaties 4, 6, 7, 8, and 10 as well as the 22 Metis districts of this province. We wish to acknowledge the many First Nations, Metis, and Inuit people whose ancestors have walked the land in Canada for centuries and with whom we share this land with today. We seek to continually reaffirm our commitment as a Society to move forward in partnership alongside Indigenous people across Canada with a spirit of reconciliation and decolonization.
