ABORIGINAL SERVICES
We organize activities and events aimed at providing an excellent student experience. Feasts, study and
lounge areas, cultural teachings, craft nights and computers are just a few of the resources you can access at
the Aboriginal Resource Centre in Barrie, Midland, Orillia and Owen Sound. We also organize college-wide
events that promote and increase awareness of Aboriginal culture, including an annual student-led PowWow.

As a student, I found everything I needed
from Aboriginal Services – social supports
and events, academics, employment, professional
development, spirituality and everything
in between. It's literally the full package
for students.
