FAQ

Your Questions, Answered

Have questions about our work or how you can get involved? Here you’ll find answers to common inquiries about our programs, research, and ways to support Indigenous communities.

All My Relations is an Indigenous research centre based at Thompson Rivers University.
We support Indigenous students, researchers, and communities through programs grounded in cultural knowledge, relationality, and land-based practices. Our work includes mentorship, research training, gatherings, and healing initiatives.

Our programs are open to Indigenous students, faculty, community members, and allies.
Each program may have its own focus (e.g., graduate students, youth, 2SLGBTQIA+), but all are rooted in creating inclusive, culturally safe spaces for learning, connection, and growth.

No—many of our programs welcome Indigenous participants from beyond TRU.
Whether you’re a community member, researcher, or student at another institution, you’re welcome to connect with us and explore ways to get involved.

You can check our Event Calendar or follow us on social media.
We update our calendar regularly with gatherings, workshops, and other opportunities. You can also contact us directly to be added to our mailing list.
