We are excited to share that Phase 2 of our KAIROS Blanket Exercise (KBE) program rollout is underway! This phase marks a significant step in our ongoing efforts to enhance and expand this powerful educational tool.
In Phase 2, we are accepting partnership requests from experienced facilitators who have been conducting KBEs for 5 plus years. These new partners may have a facilitator who also requires training in order to be able to facilitate a KBE. Our phased in approach enables our current partners who are also instructors, to ensure every team receives all the necessary training to deliver a KBE.
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 historically accurate and culturally sensitive, and 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
