Tk̓emlúps te Secwépemc is honoured to be sharing that Kúkpi7 Rosanne Casimir will be receiving the Order of British Columbia (O.B.C) on Thursday, December 1, 2022.

She endeavors are to make her people proud, build positive relationships, and she vows to continue carrying the truths of our elders and survivors on this journey redefining a true collective history of those impacted by Indian Residential Schools, and those who did not make it home.
