Nine BC health profession regulatory colleges, including CPTBC, released a progress report outlining Indigenous cultural safety, humility, and anti-racism activities in the two years since signing a Joint Statement of Apology and Commitment to Action.
The release of this Joint Apology and Commitment to Action 2021-2023 Report (PDF) coincided with Orange Shirt Day and National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, both on September 30, 2023.
In the report’s summary, the colleges recognize “that we are at the beginning of a lifelong journey that is personal and professional, individual and collective … We remain committed to this work, recognizing that we must be persistent in acknowledging and dismantling historic and ongoing Indigenous-specific racism everywhere that it exists.”
