What Our
Clients Say
“Arrive Consulting developed a critical piece of curriculum for our Reconciliation Learning Project, which seeks to provide Indigenous-led cultural safety training to staff and volunteers or urban indigenous service providers. Arrive went above and beyond to meet the unique needs of our community. They were a pleasure to work with and their high level of knowledge about curriculum development and Indigenous cultural safety resulted in a powerful cultural resource.”
Tanya Clarmont, Director of Management Services, Victoria Native Friendship Center
“We worked with Arrive Consulting to develop and publish the book, “Kaa-wiichihitoyaahk: Métis Perspectives on Cultural Wellness.” This project focused on creating a Métis-led cultural wellness book that balanced education and cultural teachings. Rachel and her talented team gathered input from community members in a way that honoured their voices and experiences, kept us on track throughout this complex project, and helped us channel our needs and unique cultural worldview into print. I would highly recommend them!”
Tanya Davoren, Senior Director of Health, Métis Nation BC
“Arrive Consulting worked with the Métis Nation on the Métis Early Years of Professional Learning Guides. Their willingness to collaborate with Elders, artists, graphic designers, educators, and communities is inspiring. Their respect for cultural values and beliefs is sincere.”
Colleen Hodgson, Senior Director of Education, Métis Nation BC
“The Called to Action team helped guide the Inter-Cultural Association of Greater Victoria in our Indigenous Journey Project, which involved creating a five-year reconciliation action plan and providing training to all our staff. The process was very inclusive, and the team really set the tone for learning together collaboratively. As a result, our staff are better prepared to educate newcomers about colonization and contribute within our organization to advance reconciliation and relationships with indigenous peoples. We are grateful for the support, encouragement, and expertise of The Called to Action Team.”
Jean McRae, CEO, Inter-Cultural Association of Greater Victoria
“Rachel and Arrive Consulting have been a huge help to our organization for a number of different projects – everything from facilitating organization-wide business planning to developing plans and processes that have increased FPCC’s capacity to communicate its organizational vision. Arrive’s work is consistently high-quality and the team takes a client-centered approach, providing flexibility and responsiveness through all aspects of the project. We feel confident working with Arrive, as we know our projects will be done well and completed on time!”
Tracey Herbert, CEO, First Peoples’ Cultural Council
“What a unique and rare opportunity it is to work with such skilled and ethical practitioners who will support your team to work in a good way. I trust in both the quality of the process and the product because this team knows the two cannot be separated! I hold my hands up to them and would look for every opportunity to work with them again."
