June is also National Indigenous History Month, a time to honour, learn from, and reflect on the histories, cultures, and contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples across Canada.

We acknowledge that Indigenous women, families, and communities have not always experienced safety, dignity, or fairness within their communities, healthcare and child welfare systems. The impacts of this are real and ongoing.

We believe every woman deserves access to compassionate, informed care and the right to make empowered decisions about her pregnancy and her child. We also recognize the vital role of Indigenous fathers and men, whose voices and presence are essential in supporting strong families and communities.

Beginnings works in collaboration with local Bands and Indigenous Services offering our services to the community with a focus on respect, partnership, and culturally informed care.

We are committed to listening, learning, and walking forward with humility, honouring the strength, resilience, and wisdom within Indigenous communities.

Beginnings Family Services is proud to recognize Children & Youth in Care Day 2026 and stand alongside young people in and from care across Ontario.

This year’s theme, Rising in Strength and Story, is a meaningful reminder that children and youth in care are so much more than the systems they navigate. They are individuals with voices, dreams, resilience, and stories that deserve to be heard, honoured, and celebrated.

At Beginnings, we believe every child and youth deserves to feel seen, valued, supported, and connected. We recognize the importance of creating spaces where young people can embrace their identity, share their experiences, and know they belong.

Today, we honour the strength of children and youth in and from care and reaffirm our commitment to supporting families, connections, and community.

To every young person with lived experience in care: your voice matters, your story matters, and your future matters.

At Beginnings, we are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to work alongside so many compassionate and dedicated nurses across Ontario. We witness the care, empathy, and professionalism they bring when supporting birth parents facing some of the most difficult decisions of their lives.

It is always a pleasure when we can work together in harmony, united in the best interests of our clients and committed to providing compassionate care every step of the way.

To all the nurses who give their long hours, heart, and soul to this work — thank you. Your dedication does not go unnoticed, and we deeply appreciate everything you do.
