Check out this article from our Program Director, Dr Jamaica Cass in The Conversation! Learn about programs like ours across the country, with the common goal of making sure Indigenous students can succeed in health education, and ensuring communities benefit from culturally safe, long-term providers.

When Indigenous communities shape how health professionals are trained, it’s a path toward trust, equity and a health system that finally reflects the people it serves.

Celebrating the important, innovative and inspiring work of two remarkable women! Congratulations Dr Lindsay Brant and Dr Jamaica Cass!!

Each year, ONWA recognizes women whose work and contributions to the Indigenous community have made an impact upon the quality of life of Indigenous women and their families. Awards were presented at ONWA's 54th AGA and Leadership Conference.
