Vin White Buffalo (Video)

Vin White Buffalo joins our podcast to share his experience, strength and hope. Vin has overcame great hardships. Vin and his twin brother were separated from their biological family during the 60's scoop, wherein he was placed in a non-indigenous foster home. Life had already been tough, but it became even tougher for him and his brother. At the young age, he and many of his friends became survivors of one of life's hardest trauma's, sexual assault by a family friend. We commend the courage it takes for anyone survivor to come forward and share his strength through this.

 

Fast forward a couple years Vin found himself living in a world of darkness and with little hope consumed by poly-substance use. Through assessments he had been diagnosed with FASD and despite all of these hardships, he has overcame these grave situations to share with listeners that despite what anyone has gone through, there is hope. 

 

Vin is a testimony that recovery is possible. That despite any diagnosis, you can still live life to the fullest. Vin has accomplished post-secondary education and currently works and serves those on the streets that are confined by the same darkness he found himself in. 

 

May Vin's story be a light to anyone struggling. We trust everyone who watches this finds hope, knows that despite how hard life is, there is support for you, and a community that will stand with you through this transition.
