Who
A Sign of Respect is a not for profit community driven social enterprise (sustainable business that exists for social impact) that promotes culturally safe and respectful neighbourhoods by providing practical ways for local people, community groups and businesses to show respect First Nations peoples. The initiative has been created through extensive consultation with community members, including local First Nations peoples and Elders. This community engagement has shaped the social enterprise model, and guided the wording on our signs and ensured use of First Nations artists (who receive Royalties for signs sold).
A Sign of Respect is governed by an independent Board comprising a minimum of 50% First Nations Board Members.
