Weaving Community Voices: Huli’tun Health Society’s Five-Year Plan – FNHA
October 24, 2025
The Huli’tun Health Society (HHS), serving the Halalt and Lyackson First Nations on Vancouver Island, is embarking on a meaningful journey to refresh its five-year Community Health and Wellness Plan. More than just a document, this plan reflects a commitment to listening deeply, honouring culture, and building a stronger foundation for future generations.
Led by Health Director Maureen Wilson and the dedicated Board of Directors for HHS, the process began by reflecting on past plans and asking, “What worked well? What do we need to do better?” Board member Grant Robinson shared, “We looked at what went well last time, what community members brought forward afterward, and how they suggested we improve. We wanted to make sure we truly heard them.”
Community engagement went far beyond surveys and emails. It included face-to-face gatherings, shared meals, and even plans for youth to go door-to-door to talk directly with members.
