We are excited to share that we’ll be entering Phase 2 of our KAIROS Blanket Exercise (KBE) program rollout in late October. This next phase marks a significant step in our ongoing efforts to enhance and expand this powerful educational tool.
In Phase 2, we’ll be extending invitations to experienced facilitators who have been conducting KBEs for five or more years. We’re particularly interested in teams that have one or two members requiring additional training. This approach enables us to leverage current expertise and partnerships while ensuring that every team member receives the necessary training.
Looking ahead, we’re planning a full program launch in winter 2025. This timeline allows us to thoroughly implement and refine our new framework, ensuring that when we fully launch, the KBE will be partnership-driven and Indigenous-led. Our goal remains to offer an educational experience that is not only historically accurate and culturally sensitive but also deeply engaging and transformative for all participants.
We’re grateful for your continued support and enthusiasm for the KAIROS Blanket Exercise. Together, we’re working towards a future of greater understanding and reconciliation.
With humility and gratitude, The KBE Team
