Indigenous Support Office

Medicine Hat College honours and acknowledges that we are situated on Treaty 7 and neighbour to Treaty 4 territory, traditional lands of the Siksika (Blackfoot), Kainai (Blood), Piikani (Peigan), Stoney-Nakoda, and Tsuut’ina (Sarcee) as well as the Cree, Sioux, and the Saulteaux bands of the Ojibwa peoples. We also honour and acknowledge that we are on the homelands of the Métis Nation within Region III.

Beyond the warm welcome

MHC Indigenous services are here to support all students with resources and information in regards to First Nations, Métis and Inuit culture, and assist with the integration and education of Indigenous culture on campus.

The Indigenous support office is a welcoming space for the college community to connect and experience Indigenous culture. Guest speakers, workshops, and events will be hosted by the office to educate students, staff, and the public on Indigenous issues, traditions, and history. There will also be opportunities in the community to take part in training, connect with resources, and visit surrounding communities for events and ceremonies.
