Shé:kon sewakwé:kon! My name is Alicia Mendes, and I am a Mohawk woman from Wahta Mohawks First Nation. I am a Cultural Resource Advisor with Dnaagdawenmag Binnoojiiyag Child & Family Services where I provide cultural teachings and support to our families we walk alongside. My education comes from a BA (Hons) in Psychology and a Post Graduate Certificate with Honours in Behaviour Science. I walk with humility in sharing my teachings that come from my matrilineal line, Elder Knowledge Keeper Mary Anne Spencer, and teachings passed down from Elder Jake Thomas.
