👋 Get to know the Bimose Tribal Council team!

We’ll be introducing the people behind our programs and services, sharing what they do and how their work supports our Bimose family and the communities we serve. 🖤💛

✨ First up, meet Cami Carpenter! Cami supports Anishinaabe students in Grades 9–12 at Beaver Brae Secondary School. 🏫 Here’s a little about her work and what she enjoys outside of it, in her own words:

Cami Carpenter
Anishinaabe Student Mental Health Counselor
Beaver Brae Secondary School
Grade 9 - 12

As an Anishinaabe Student Mental Health Counselor, I provide holistic, culturally grounded support to Anishinaabe students as they navigate secondary school. My practice emphasizes cultural connection, identity, belonging, and youth empowerment, while recognizing the importance of supporting the student as a whole.
I collaborate with the public school board, families, and community partners to strengthen learning opportunities, promote Indigenous education, and foster meaningful connections to Anishinaabe culture, language, traditions, and community.

I support students across academic, mental health, social, emotional, and cultural areas, working alongside them to build resilience, confidence, and the skills needed to thrive both in school and beyond.

My work is rooted in a strengths-based, relationship-centred approach that honours each student's unique experiences, supports their well-being, and empowers them to recognize their strengths, embrace their identities, and shape their own futures.
Outside of work, I enjoy sewing, coaching hockey, playing sports, attending ceremony and spending quality time with loved ones.

Miigwech,
Cami 💕

🧡 Yesterday, students and staff from Gaagagekiizhik School and Bimose Community High School, among other Kenora schools walked to the Cecilia Jeffrey Residential School Memorial Site to pay their respects in recognition of Orange Shirt Day and the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

Together, they honoured Residential School Survivors, remembered the children who never returned home, and reflected on the lasting impacts on families and communities.

Orange Shirt Day reminds us why learning this history and listening to Survivors matters. It is an opportunity to reflect on the harm caused by residential schools and our shared responsibility to ensure every child feels safe, valued and proud of who they are.

For our students, this walk was a meaningful way to take that learning beyond the classroom. Remembering, listening and showing respect are actions we can carry forward every day.

Every Child Matters. 🧡
