Boozhoo,
We have established the Biinjitiwaabik Zaaging Anishinaabek health and Wellness Committee in order to develop a 5-year Health and Wellness Strategy.
Our Vision is to achieve community health and wellness by supporting physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual growth.
Our mission statement is to provide and promote a health and wellness system for all Biinjitiwaabik Zaaging Anishinaabek members that’s inclusive, fully funded and based on community consultation. “We will ensure health and wellness services guides us to reclaim cultural practices while honoring new and existing partnerships.”
We are looking to engage all community members to assist with input in the form of surveys, small focus groups, lunch & learns, Naming & logo contest. Community engagement is our top priority. Please be aware that there will be future updates of upcoming sessions, members will be notified through flyers, Rocky Bay website (rockybayfn.ca) & Facebook group (Rocky Bay Community Information for the Covid-19).
