The programs at the Niagara Regional Native Centre work together and Philip works to raise cultural awareness and foster wellbeing on a community and individual level.
Philip Davis is the Cultural Resource Coordinator for the Niagara Regional Native Centre and this program provides Indigenous educational services, that are focused on providing children, youth, family and community access to cultural knowledge. This is done through a variety of approaches with the aim to foster wellbeing and positive Indigenous Identity. Music is a tool that Davis uses to pass on cultural knowledge with regular drum nights. An exploration of colonial history is an important element in self-discovery which empowers individuals to learn about who they are and where they come from.
Additionally, Davis coordinates learning experiences for outside agencies (churches, community services, etc.) about Indigenous history, colonialism, and residential schools. These services help to raise awareness and to reduce racism.
