To Facilitators and Partners: In recent years, the KAIROS Blanket Exercise has grown in popularity. Through a deep analysis we’ve looked at the sustainability of the program. With our recent program stop, we’ve concluded that a new structure is required to better support the KBE Program. This new model will put the KBE Program back into the hands of Indigenous Community, with the support of KAIROS Blanket Exercise Program staff for administration, curriculum/ script development, annual training, etc. Within the new KBE Model, Indigenous individuals can become KBE Community Partners and offer KBE through their new or existing businesses to manage the facilitation of the KBE/vKBE. Our Community Partners will address incoming requests from hosts to deliver a KBE/ vKBE and these will no longer be scheduled and managed by KAIROS, but by our Indigenous Community Partners. Further details and next steps, including various consultations will be communicated once they become available at a later date. Thank you for your patience and continued support. |
