Indigenous Health Promotion Resource Booklet

The Young Canadians Roundtable on Health is planning on launching a Health Promotion Resource Booklet this summer 2023 that will be distributed amongst Indigenous communities and organizations across Canada. This booklet aims to increase knowledge and awareness of various health-issues that are apparent across Indigenous communities. We are currently seeking Indigenous youth to participate in our virtual circle being held on February 9th, 2023; as well as partnerships with Indigenous organizations or professionals in the public health sector. If you are interested please see the information below. 

The YCRH's Indigenous Youth Virtual Circle: 

The YCRH is currently looking for Canadian Indigenous youth between the ages of 16 to 25 years of age to participate in a virtual circle and share their lived experience and opinions related to current health-related issues and barriers that they face within their community. Themes and topics gathered from the virtual circle will help inform a Health Promotion Resource Booklet that The YCRH plans on launching in Summer 2023.
