Truth and Reconciliation Action Plans

Rise supports organizations to co-create Truth and Reconciliation Action Plans (RAPs or RAP), strategic plans which guide the journey and bring accountability and focus to the future as organizations advance Truth, Reconciliation and Indigenous inclusion. The use of Reconciliation Action Plans (RAPs) is a leading practice for corporations responding to Call to Action #92. We design approaches recognizing that strategic planning for Reconciliation and inclusion takes intent and time. 

We work with our clients to manage and facilitate the process to gather resources and ideas to support the creation of areas of focus, goals, objectives, activities and measurable KPIs over an agreed timeframe. We ensure that all aspects are ambitious, specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, time-bound and aligned with core services where they can truly influence their industry, nurture existing relationships and build new relationships with Indigenous Peoples, communities and organizations.

With a focus on Reconciliation, our team can assist with:

• Readiness for RAP development
• RAP development
• RAP evaluation and improvement
• RAP implementation

This advances Reconciliation and Indigenous inclusion through: 

• Organization-wide accountability
• Knowledge and action to support positive advancement with Truth, Reconciliation and Indigenous inclusion
• Strategy, governance and policy adopted at all levels and across all areas of the organization
• Clear and consistent support from Indigenous Peoples, communities, organizations and businesses
