Celebrating the MNBC-IH Métis Health and Wellness Plan

September 19, 2024

We are excited to announce the launch of the Métis Nation British Columbia (MNBC) – Interior Health (IH) Métis Health and Wellness Plan, an initiative dedicated to enhancing health and wellness outcomes for Métis people through collaboration and cultural integration. 

Check out the plan

A year ago, at the 2023 Annual General Meeting in Kamloops, Métis Nation British Columbia and Interior Health signed a Letter of Understanding. Since then, significant strides have been made in advocating for Métis communities across BC and increasing Métis visibility. Our ongoing collaborative efforts continue to drive progress, and we are excited to share recent achievements as well as upcoming projects.
