Welcome Adrian Jacobs
We are thrilled to announce that Adrian Jacobs has accepted the position of senior leader for Indigenous Justice and Reconciliation in the CRC in Canada.
Jacobs is a Cayuga First Nation member of the Six Nations Haudenosaunee Confederacy of the Grand River Territory, Ont. “I am an artist, writer, Indigenous advocate, entrepreneur, and public speaker. I express my passion in graphic art, poetry and prose writing, plenary speaking, mentoring, and group management,” Jacobs stated in his application for the position.
The senior leader for Indigenous Justice and Reconciliation is a new position in the CRCNA. It was created after an in-depth strategic planning process for the CRC in Canada. That process identified a commitment to justice and reconciliation as a core ministry.
Jacobs will transition from his current role in Manitoba by working part-time in this new position from May through October. He plans to move home to Six Nations of the Grand River in Ontario during this time and to begin at full-time capacity with the CRC on Nov. 1.
