Circles for Reconciliation is an Indigenous-led non-profit corporation based in Canada, aimed at fostering meaningful relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples. This is done through the creation of small discussion circles, each consisting of an equal number of Indigenous and non-Indigenous participants. These circles, led by trained facilitators, meet regularly to promote understanding and respect, key elements of reconciliation. The organization's efforts align with the 94 Calls to Action from the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.
