Cultural & Other Workshops
In the Akwesasne community, midwifery is not just about delivering babies. It is about promoting holistic health and wellness, as well as preserving cultural traditions. To ensure that this vital knowledge and practice is passed onto future generations, it is essential that cultural workshops are made available to Akwesasró:non families. In order to perpetuate our culture for the next generations, OMC offers various cultural workshops.
