Omanitew Training ALIGN

The practice of omanitew to celebrate your visitors, to make space for them physically and spiritually - is a core teaching and way of life in the iyiniw (First People, People of the Land) community. We need to make sure our visitors have the best, both while they are with us and when they leave. Our role is to honor their presence, provide emotional, physical, spiritual and mental support and to ensure that, when they leave our place, they leave with everything we can provide to enable them to continue their journey. We believe that the practice of omanitew is only possible within the context of ceremony, and that our provision of services our practice is ceremony. We suggest that, in accordance with the teachings and practices, this is a more relevant concept then cultural competency. That is, to practice omanitew with our clients. To celebrate when they enter into our programs, to make ceremonial space for them within our programs, and to provide them with the best we can for them to continue their journey once they leave.
