🌞 That's a Wrap on Our Summer 2026 Associate Meetings! 🌞
As we wrap up our Summer 2026 Associate Meetings, we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to all of our associates, consultants, and presenters who joined us over the past weeks. Your engagement, insights, and commitment continue to strengthen our growing community of leaders and changemakers.
We're excited to share some of the important initiatives and opportunities discussed during our final session:
✨ BMG Indigenous Services has been invited to participate as a panelist at the Forward Summit East National Conference this September, where we will contribute to national conversations on Indigenous leadership and meaningful collaboration.
🌎 In October, BMG Indigenous Services will also present at the Global Summit for Child Welfare (KEMP Conference), The presentation is titled: ''Preparing
for the next seven generations: Indigenous child welfare laws, sovereignty,
and holistic models of care for children, youth, and families''.
🪶 Marion, our Indigenous lead, introduced and discussed the BMG Indigenous Thought Leadership Approach—an approach that intentionally centers Indigenous knowledge systems, worldviews, and ways of being as essential and legitimate frameworks for addressing today's complex challenges. By embracing Indigenous thought leadership, we create space for authentic dialogue, innovation, reconciliation, and sustainable change.
We'll be back this fall with more Associate Meetings, new opportunities to connect, and exciting conversations that continue to inspire learning, collaboration, and impact. We look forward to seeing you then!
