I Belong Bags (IBB) est une initiative communautaire \u00e0 Calgary qui soutient des enfants vuln\u00e9rables en situation de crise. Le projet visait initialement \u00e0 soutenir des enfants qui \u00e9taient plac\u00e9s dans une famille d\u2019accueil, mais inclut dor\u00e9navant tous les enfants et jeunes personnes de Calgary qui vivent une crise ou un traumatisme ou qui sont victimes de n\u00e9gligence ou de pauvret\u00e9. IBB fournit des sacs \u00e0 dos remplis d\u2019articles essentiels et r\u00e9confortants, comme des pyjamas, une brosse \u00e0 dents, une couverture douce, des petits jouets et d\u2019autres cadeaux.<\/p>\n
En date de juin 2018, plus de 11 000 enfants en Alberta ont eu affaire \u00e0 un service quelconque d\u2019intervention pour les jeunes (Alberta Children\u2019s Services 2018-2019). Un grand nombre de ceux-ci ont \u00e9t\u00e9 retir\u00e9s de leur domicile pour leur protection avec seuls les v\u00eatements qu\u2019ils portaient sur le dos et un sac \u00e0 d\u00e9chet rempli des quelques articles qu\u2019ils ch\u00e9rissent le plus. L\u2019utilisation d\u2019un sac \u00e0 d\u00e9chet comme valise ou le fait de quitter le seul foyer qu\u2019ils ont connu les mains vides peut causer des dommages psychologiques chez des enfants d\u00e9j\u00e0 traumatis\u00e9s, des enfants qui ne m\u00e9ritent pas de se sentir de la sorte.<\/p>\n

Tanya Forbes a fond\u00e9 I Belong Bags dans la classe de son enfant \u00e0 la Tanbridge Academy en f\u00e9vrier 2019. La classe d\u2019\u00e9tudes sociales de 1re ann\u00e9e, qui a dirig\u00e9 cette initiative pour l\u2019\u00e9cole enti\u00e8re, s\u2019est lanc\u00e9e \u00e0 pieds joints dans le projet. Les \u00e9l\u00e8ves ont r\u00e9dig\u00e9 des courriels pour les parents et ont cr\u00e9\u00e9 des affiches, des bo\u00eetes de don et une pr\u00e9sentation pour les \u00e9l\u00e8ves de la 2e \u00e0 la 9e ann\u00e9e. Au fur et \u00e0 mesure que les dons \u00e9taient amass\u00e9s, ils ont recueilli des sacs \u00e0 dos et fait le tri des articles. \u00c0 la fin du semestre, ils avaient 18 sacs \u00e0 dos en leur possession. Ces derniers \u00e9taient remplis d\u2019articles divers, comme des couches et des chapeaux pour nouveau-n\u00e9s. Les \u00e9l\u00e8ves de la 2e \u00e0 la 9e ann\u00e9e ont fait don de 700$, montant qu\u2019ils avaient amass\u00e9 \u00e0 l\u2019occasion d\u2019une foire d\u2019entrepreneuriat et d\u2019un vendredi d\u00e9contract\u00e9. Les sacs \u00e0 dos ont ensuite \u00e9t\u00e9 remis \u00e0 un foyer d\u2019accueil d\u2019urgence pour femmes et au service de police de la Nation Tosguna Tsuut\u2019ina.<\/p>\n
L\u2019effet social de ce petit projet a \u00e9t\u00e9 de grande port\u00e9e. Cette activit\u00e9 pratique a aid\u00e9 les \u00e9l\u00e8ves \u00e0 se familiariser avec des mots comme appartenance, responsabilit\u00e9, droits et citoyennet\u00e9 active, et leur a inculqu\u00e9 des valeurs comme la compassion, l’empathie et le souci d\u2019autrui. Les \u00e9l\u00e8ves ont appris qu\u2019ils peuvent faire une diff\u00e9rence dans le monde en soutenant des enfants dans le besoin dans leur propre communaut\u00e9. Plut\u00f4t que de simplement parler de ce \u00e0 quoi ressemblent des membres positifs de la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 et de la communaut\u00e9, les \u00e9l\u00e8ves ont v\u00e9cu une exp\u00e9rience qui a leur a apport\u00e9 un sentiment de fiert\u00e9 et qui a renforc\u00e9 leur estime de soi. Ils ont assum\u00e9 la responsabilit\u00e9 de ce projet et se le sont appropri\u00e9. Ils y ont particip\u00e9 pleinement et ont mobilis\u00e9 des \u00e9l\u00e8ves plus \u00e2g\u00e9s, des enseignantes et enseignants et des parents au moyen de leurs pr\u00e9sentations et de leur leadership. Ce petit projet scolaire devait \u00eatre une exp\u00e9rience unique, mais s\u2019est transform\u00e9 en mouvement communautaire viable qui deviendra sous peu un organisme \u00e0 but non lucratif. IBB travaille avec le service de police de la Nation Tsuut\u2019ina, le Children\u2019s Cottage Society et l\u2019Alex Youth Centre. De l\u2019espace d\u2019entreposage est g\u00e9n\u00e9reusement fourni par Sentinel Storage<\/p>\n
I Belong Bags Backpack a \u00e9t\u00e9 soumis encore une fois cette ann\u00e9e au conseil scolaire de Calgary comme projet communautaire. On a demand\u00e9 aux enseignantes et enseignants de l\u2019examiner et d\u2019envisager de l\u2019inclure dans le programme d\u2019\u00e9tudes sociales.<\/p>\n

This initiative and vision originally focused on supporting children entering foster care but has since transitioned to include all children and youth experiencing crisis, trauma, neglect and poverty in the city. IBB provides children in crisis with backpacks filled with essential and comforting items such as pyjamas, toothbrushes, soft blankets, small toys and other gifts.<\/p> As of June 2018, in Alberta, over 11,000 children accessed child intervention services of some kind (Alberta Children\u2019s Services 2018\/19). Many of these children would have been apprehended from their homes for their protection with only the clothes on their backs or just enough time to fill a trash bag with their most treasured belongings. Using a trash bag as a suitcase or leaving empty-handed from the only place they know as home sends damaging psychological messages to children already experiencing trauma, and children do not deserve to feel this way. The impact of this moment lives with them and carries into every part of their existence from this point forward. I Belong Bags is working toward changing this meaning-making moment for children and reminding them that they do belong in this world, no matter what they\u2019ve experienced, where they\u2019re from or what they believe to be true about themselves.<\/p> [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=\"1_4\" _builder_version=\"4.24.2\" _module_preset=\"default\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_image src=\"https:\/\/ssencressc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/6a.png\" title_text=\"6a\" _builder_version=\"4.27.0\" _module_preset=\"default\" custom_margin=\"100px||||false|false\" custom_margin_tablet=\"100px||||false|false\" custom_margin_phone=\"100px||||false|false\" custom_margin_last_edited=\"on|desktop\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=\"row\" _builder_version=\"4.16\" background_size=\"initial\" background_position=\"top_left\" background_repeat=\"repeat\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_column type=\"4_4\" _builder_version=\"4.16\" custom_padding=\"|||\" global_colors_info=\"{}\" custom_padding__hover=\"|||\"][et_pb_text admin_label=\"Description\" _builder_version=\"4.27.0\" _module_preset=\"default\" custom_margin=\"-25px||||false|false\" custom_margin_last_edited=\"off|desktop\" custom_padding=\"||0px|||\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"]<\/p> Founder Tanya Forbes started I Belong Bags in her child\u2019s Grade 1 classroom at Tanbridge Academy in February 2019. The Grade 1 social studies class took this project on wholeheartedly and spearheaded it to the entire school. They drafted e-mails to parents and created posters, donation boxes and a presentation for the Grades 2\u20139 students. As the donations started rolling in, they collected and sorted the items into backpacks. By the end of the term, they collected 18 filled backpacks as well as such miscellaneous items as diapers and newborn hats to add to each backpack. The Grades 2\u20139 students donated over $700 that they earned from an entrepreneurial fair and casual Friday. These backpacks found homes at the women\u2019s emergency shelter and Tosguna Tsuut\u2019ina Nation Police Service.<\/p> This small school project was expected to be a one-time initiative but has since grown into a viable community movement that is on its way to becoming a nonprofit organization. IBB is working with Tsuut\u2019ina Nation Police Service, the Children\u2019s Cottage Society and the Alex Youth Centre, and free storage space is generously sponsored by Sentinel Storage.<\/p> The I Belong Bags Backpack Program has been submitted to the Calgary Board of Education again this year as a community project for teachers to review and consider implementing in their classrooms as part of the social studies curriculum in new and creative ways.

Returning Dignity to Children in Crisis in Alberta<\/h1>The social impact of this little project was far-reaching. This hands-on involvement helped the students connect with words like belonging, responsibility, rights and active citizenship, and instilled such values as compassion, empathy and caring for others. Students gained an understanding of how to affect change in the world by supporting children in need in their own communities. Rather than simply talking about what it looks like to be positive members of society and of the community, the students gained a lived experience that strongly impacted their sense of pride and self-worth. They took responsibility and ownership of this project in a big way, were truly engaged in the learning and enrolled older students, teachers and parents with their presentation and leadership skills.<\/p>
