The Alberta  Ability Network gratefully acknowledges that what we call Alberta, is the traditional and ancestral territories and gathering place for diverse Indigenous peoples whose histories, languages, and cultures continue to influence our vibrant communities. We make this acknowledgement as an act of reconciliation, and gratitude to the many First Nations, Métis Settlements and the Six Regions of the Métis Nation of Alberta, and Inuit who have lived in and cared for these lands for generations.
