The Vanier Institute of the Family is located on the unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishinaabe people, who have protected this land since time immemorial and who continue to live and work here today. We strive to support decolonization by amplifying voices and research that highlight the ongoing impacts of colonialism, displacement, and systemic racism on Indigenous family and community connections, cultures, and wellbeing.
