Intergenerational Wellness
Stream
The purpose of the Intergenerational Wellness stream was to assist Japanese Canadian individuals and families heal the intergenerational impacts that BC government actions in the 1940s had on the Japanese Canadian community. There were three categories of funding to support intergenerational wellness. Category 1 grants supported projects that facilitated intergenerational Family Sharing & Healing. Category 2 grants assisted with Seniors Intergenerational Group Wellness projects supporting seniors and Survivors. Category 3 grants assisted with projects supporting Intergenerational Group Gatherings that addressed the collective historical trauma of the Internment Era experience.
