NAHO signs Collaborative Agreement with the Aboriginal Nurses Association of Canada (A.N.A.C.)
Ottawa, ON –The National Aboriginal Health Organization (NAHO), and Rosella Kinoshameg, President of the Aboriginal Nurses Association of Canada (A.N.A.C.) today signed a Collaborative Agreement formalizing a partnership between the two organizations. Together, they will work in partnership to exchange information for the purpose of knowledge translation through their respective networks and to collaborate on initiatives of mutual interest.
“One of the goals of NAHO is to support and promote First Nations, Inuit and Métis efforts to access relevant information regarding Traditional and Western based health related careers,” says Dr. Paulette C. Tremblay, CEO of NAHO. “Nursing is a valued and treasured career and those wishing to pursue this path should be given every opportunity to succeed. Through this partnership, we believe that we will take one step further in accomplishing this very important goal.”
The A.N.A.C. also works to engage in activities related to recruitment and retention, member support, consultation, research and education.
“For years, the health of Aboriginal peoples have been on the back burner and now, as A.N.A.C. bonds with another Aboriginal organization, we are making great strides in transforming our vision into a reality and bringing the best solutions possible to our people”, states Rosella Kinoshameg, President of A.N.A.C., “Although we have different vehicles, we are all working towards one unified goal, which is to enhance the health of Aboriginal people. This exciting partnership with NAHO will aid immensely in the goals of both of our organizations.”
