“Being in the mountains, being at the lake, being on the canoe. These are all ways our people have healed over the last hundreds of years.” – Mavis Pierre, Katzie Nation
Summer is almost here, and we hope everyone will make time to enjoy the extra sunlight and the beauty of the great outdoors. Spending time on the land isn’t just good for the body; it also nurtures our spirit. Since time immemorial, First Nations people have held a wholistic, sacred connection to the land and waters that continues to support our health and wellness today.
To honour and celebrate this connection, the First Nations Health Authority (FNHA) will be running a summer photo initiative on social media for First Nations people living in BC.
