A week after grieving the loss of the Indigenous children whose remains were discovered in unmarked graves near former residential schools, Mitch White of Creative Fire knew the best way to help was to keep working.
Born in Labrador and raised in the territory of the Nunatsiavut Nation, White has spent his career sharing the stories of Northern Inuits by working as a journalist, an advocate for Inuit mental health, a policy contributor and, since early last year, as a senior communications lead at Creative Fire.
