Angeline Day is a member of the Onyota'a:ka (“People of the Standing Stone”) Oneida Nation, wolf clan, a matriarchal community on her mothers side, which is part of the 6 Nations Haudenosaunee Confederacy based on the Great Law of Peace. She also has Jamaican ancestry from her father.  She was born and raised on the unceded and unsurrendered ancestral lands of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh Nations in what is known as Vancouver, B.C. and is very grateful to be an uninvited guest on these lands. 

Angeline specializes in Cultivating Safe Spaces training for organizations, educational institutions, teams and groups including, students, staff/management training, youth groups and newcomer groups. This training provides you with the tools, protocols, conditions, and teachings necessary to actively decolonize spaces including within yourself, as well as within your work procedures and policies, in order to cultivate a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment for all.

Angeline has been mentored and supervised by Elaine Alec during her placement in 2023 as an Intern with the Indigenous Youth Internship Program (IYIP).  During that time, Angeline first heard Elaine speak about Cultivating Safe Spaces (CSS) and she immediately resonated with the teachings and wisdom that Elaine spoke from and knew this was something she wanted to be a part of.  Angeline felt deeply empowered by the teachings she received from Elaine and continues to apply them to herself, in her life, and in different relationships.  She proudly presented her very first CSS Training a week after she completed her training and certification in Cultivating Safe Spaces. 

She is proud to have taught the Cultivating Safe Spaces framework and approach to over 200+ people and counting. 

Angeline is passionate about providing Cultivating Safe Spaces training to non-profits, decolonizing teams and groups, and especially for Indigenous and Black youth.  

She is motivated to teach Cultivating Safe Spaces sessions for people who:

  • Want to learn to cultivate safe spaces for others and promote diversity and inclusion.

  • Want to learn how to decolonize their work, policies and procedures. 

  • Want to gain self awareness and confidence to move deeper into their healing.

  • Want to learn new tools and vocabulary around Cultivating Safe Spaces.  

Angeline is proud to have delivered Cultivating Safe Spaces training and presentations to: Neighborhood Houses, UBC (University of British Columbia), Indigenous organizations, City of Vancouver- Arts, Culture and Engagement, to name a few and is always looking for grants to continue doing this impactful important work! Thus far she has been funded by the We Matter Campaign and also the Black Youth Initiative to offer free Cultivating Safe Spaces training for Indigenous and Black youth. 

Angeline has her Associates of Arts Degree from Langara College and is completing a Bachelors of Arts Degree in Indigenous Studies and Sociology at SFU. In addition to delivering CSS training, Angeline also developed and implemented a series of history and cultural workshops for “New Comers” which gives them an awareness and understanding of Indigenous peoples of Canada. 

Angeline volunteers as a member of the board of directors for the Indigenous Women Rise Society located in Vancouver and helps to maintain the 215+ Memorial Garden at Beaconsfield Park. She is connected to the local Indigenous community in the Lower Mainland and has worked with various nonprofits and community centres alike.
