Lheidli T’enneh First Nation will be conducting a feasibility study, helping design a new service hub in the region with a $500,000 provincial investment.
It looks to build on the previous consultation and engagement from the Nation and the Province to seek input on a new Centre of Excellence for Children and Youth in the North.
It concluded that there is demand for more holistic, equitable and culturally safe wellness supports for children and youth that are connected and build on existing programs and services in communities.
Lheidli T’enneh First Nation will lead the feasibility study in close collaboration with the province, Northern Health Authority, First Nations Health Authority and other partners.
The goal is to provide a clear description of the scope of services for the centre and how they fit within existing services in the region, and is expected to be complete in 2025.
