Aboriginal Healing Foundation

The Aboriginal Healing Foundation was a Canadian organization established in 1998 to support First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities affected by the residential school system’s trauma. It provided funding for healing programs, cultural initiatives, and mental health services to promote recovery and reconciliation. The foundation aimed to help Indigenous peoples heal from historical abuses and reclaim their cultural identity, advocating for understanding and respect within Canadian society. It operated until 2014, playing a key role in supporting Indigenous-led efforts towards emotional and cultural resilience.
