Ocean Matriarchs focuses on restoring access to ocean‑derived food security, cultural practices, and skills development for urban Indigenous single mothers and their children. Through workshops, shared learning with Elders, and the creation of a resilience hub, participants will gain training in food preservation, ocean conservation, and emergency preparedness.
