Indigenous Link is entirely focused on developing connections to Indigenous Communities and Peoples across Canada. Our Clients use those connections to share important information, announcements, and initiatives. We help organizations, corporations and government departments tell their stories. In the process, we build awareness, increase understanding, and cultivate trust to create a shared vision. It is about recognizing that we are all connected and can build a future based on a foundation of knowledge, inclusion and acceptance.
Like most things worth doing, Indigenous Inclusion is a journey, not a destination. But it is important to remember the potential rewards are well worth the effort.
National Day for Truth and Reconciliation
September 30 marks National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.
“The day honours the lost children and Survivors of residential schools, their families, and communities. Public commemoration of the tragic and painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools is a vital component of the reconciliation process.” – Government of Canada
We will be honouring this day on September 30, 2024 with a ‘Day of Silence’ on social media. Indigenous Link offices will be closed.

Our Services
Indigenous Link provides a full suite of products and services to meet a wide variety of needsIndigenous Link builds awareness and community presence for our partners through various proprietary Community Outreach tools. We reach First Nations, Inuit, and Métis individuals who live in their traditional/historical communities, and those who have moved away while maintaining their indigenous identity and culture. By developing Communications specifically for Indigenous Peoples, our clients demonstrate a commitment to engagement. To be successful, organizations need to make connections on many levels. To build trust, they need to tell their story – one that is relevant, credible, genuine, and compelling.
Diversity & Inclusion
The program provides employers tools that target the underrepresented Indigenous job seeker. Employers that are building a diverse and inclusive representative workforce, trying to meet employment equity reporting, satisfying government advertising requirements, or have a need to establish strong Indigenous community relations, will all benefit from this program.
Marketing & Outreach
Our marketing and outreach programs are designed to establish relationships with Indigenous influencers, leaders and community members. This strategy allows you to increase your outreach by building a community presence in traditional and cultural Indigenous communities from coast to coast to coast. We have identified several areas where organizations have gaps that present significant opportunities for Indigenous engagement and have designed specific programs to fill those needs.
