NORTHERN FIRST NATIONS HEALTH AUTHORITY NEWS
Welcome to the August 2023 edition of NORTH
IN THIS EDITION
 
In Stories from the Land we look at the services provided by BC Cancer's mobile screening van as it tours the North.
 
Despite some pretty nasty weather (which caused the cancellation of the closing ceremonies), the North American Indigenous Games were a highlight of the year in Kjipuktuk (Halifax). See how Team BC did in Sharing Strengths.
 
We are looking for two regional planners. Not sure what that work entails? Find out details in Have We Got a Job for You! on page 4. Our other current postings are there too.
 
This fall two large engagement sessions are happening. Northern operations manager, Jessica Mikolayczyk, describes both and shares more information in this month's Bonfire Chat.
 
FYI  Healing Our Spirit Worldwide comes to Canada Sept. 11-15, with the FNHA hosting this global event; there's a call out to artists to design a logo with a $2000 prize; and if your community is interested in data governance and use, there's an opportunity to partner in a new endeavour.
 
This month we opened a new office. Photos from the opening ceremony are featured in our gallery, Through Northern Eyes.
 
 
 
On the cover
Some of the gifts the FNHA Northern Region presented to the people involved in getting the new FNHA office up and running, and to those who attended the grand opening August 17, 2023 on Lheidli T'enneh territory.
