Fact Sheet on the Tripartite Evaluation of the H1N1 Pandemic Response in First Nations in BC - Do you remember how concerned we were about H1N1 last year? We are all glad that the H1N1 influenza pandemic is over, but what did we learn from the experience? Can we apply what we learned in future flu seasons? This is important because every year the flu still causes illness and contributes to deaths in our communities, and no one knows when another pandemic might occur.

Implementing the Vision- Reimagining First Nations Health in BC
This book is meant to provide the reader with an overview of where we have come from and where we are going in terms of the collective goal of the Tripartite First Nations Health Plan: to ensure First Nations are involved as equal partners in the planning and management of health services for our people. The work that BC First Nations are doing today will help us achieve that goal, and to ensure future generations have authority to enact policies, measure success, allocate resources, and establish service standards that are accountable to our communities. We need to work together to create healthy, strong, more vibrant communities now and in the future.
