The SRSC shares condolences and prayers following the passing of Survivor and Elder Michael Cachagee of Chapleau Cree First Nation. Mike was a founding member of the Children of Shingwauk Alumni Association and a long-time advocate for Survivor rights.

His work touched and changed the lives of many locally and nationally. The SRSC team has lost a dear fiend, relation, and inspiration.
