The Legacy of Hope Foundation is a national Aboriginal charitable organization whose purposes are to educate, raise awareness and understanding of the legacy of residential schools, including the effects and intergenerational impacts on First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples, and to support the ongoing healing process of Residential School Survivors. Fulfilling this mandate contributes towards reconciliation among generations of Aboriginal peoples, and between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people in Canada. Learn More About Us »
Curriculum
Over 2007-2008 the LHF worked with First Nations curriculum developers to create curricula on the history and legacy of the residential school system in Canada for grades 9-10 and 11-12, as well as for post-secondary students and lifelong learners. The curriculum can be found in the Bookshelf section of http://www.wherearethechildren.ca/
Since the launch of the website, LHF has received overwhelmingly positive feedback from teachers using the curriculum. Based, in part, on the success of the curriculum, and as a response to requests by educators and communities, LHF has expanded into the areas of museum education and is developing a range of in-class resources.
