A registered charity, supporting all learners across Haida Gwaii.
Literacy on Haida Gwaii means listening to and recording Elders’ stories, developing new job skills for islanders, learning the traditional language, filling out a health claim form, singing at a feast, and supporting adult learners who have decided to go back to school for their GED, high school credits or learn a trade.
