Joint Collaborative Committees

Collaboration brings First Nation communities and physicians together

This unique collaboration brings First Nation communities and physicians together in longhouse sessions. In Indigenous communities, the longhouse is a sacred place of healing and teaching. It is an ideal setting for a new program offered by the Joint Collaborative Committees (JCCs) that provides a unique relationship building opportunity for physicians and local First Nation communities. The goal is to support physicians in providing culturally safe care by proactively addressing issues relating Indigenous Specific Anti Racism (ISAR) & Cultural Safety (CS) in the delivery of medical services.
