Twenty years of NRT, told by the people who helped shape our journey.
We brought together past and present board members, staff and partners to share the story of New Relationship Trust. Their reflections take us back to our beginnings and through two decades of supporting BC First Nations priorities, strengthening capacity and investing in future generations.
Thank you to Cliff Fregin, Walter Schneider, Lana Plante, Terry Kuzma, Wade Grant, Trevor Todd, Tanya Corbet and Kathryn Teneese for sharing your memories and perspectives, and for the part you have each played in NRT’s story.
At the heart of this journey are the Nations and people whose leadership continues to guide our work. As we reflect on the past 20 years, we honour those relationships and the community-led change that will benefit generations to come.
