SUMMARY:Mental  Health Summit
DESCRIPTION:There is a Mental Health and Addictions Crisis in NAN territory\, one with deep roots in colonization\, intergenerational trauma\, and racism. However\, there are solutions for this crisis—and those solutions can be found within our people\, our culture\, and our communities. At the last NAN Chief’s Assembly\, community leadership called for action on this issue and directed NAN to hold an urgent Mental Health Summit. We are answering that call. \n\n\n\nOn July 12-14th\, the NAN Mental Health Summit will explore community priorities and solutions for mental health and addictions. Specific topics that will be discussed at this Summit include substance use prevention\,  harm reduction\, life promotion\, grief and loss\, and land-based healing. We invite leadership and community staff from First Nations and Tribal Councils in Nishnawbe Aski Nation to participate in this Summit and help NAN map a path forward from this crisis. \n\n\n\nThe Summit will be held both in-person at the Nor’Wester Hotel in Thunder Bay and virtually. Note: Participation will be capped at a maximum of three (3) representatives per community/organization. We will compile a wait list and release spots on Wednesday\, July 6th\, 2022.  NAN will cover the cost of one person per community (at Leadership’s discretion).

This application builds on the work of the NAN Housing Strategy mandated by Chiefs-in-Assembly in Resolution 18/18. \n\n\n\nNAN’s project has been successful in being shortlisted for Round Two and we are currently working on a final application to be submitted on June 15\, 2022. Your participation in this information session will allow you to learn more about the project and how you can get more involved! \n\n\n\nThis project recognizes the challenges that First Nations face in developing alternative housing models specific to the region’s diverse cultures\, climates and geographies. Continuing our partnership with Together Design Lab\, this application to the CMHC Housing Supply Challenge will assemble a team of frontline community workers\, subject experts\, housing professionals and individuals with lived experience to produce ready-to-implement housing plans specifically tailored to NAN’s greatest need populations. \n\n\n\nThe professional and/or lived experience of frontline workers in NAN First Nation communities (such as those supporting housing needs in child welfare\, Elder’s homecare\, family well-being\, and other various capacities\, etc) will be integral to this process of designing appropriate housing for these greatest needs populations. As such\, we are inviting NAN community members with this experience to learn more how you can participate in this project through a co-design process that looks to produce ready-to-build housing plans. \n\n\n\nFor questions about this session\, please contact Ashley Atatise\, Project Coordinator at aatatise@nan.ca

SUMMARY:NAN Best Practices in Education 2022
DESCRIPTION:Now more than ever\, students need a strong support system of educators who prioritize not only mental health and wellness but strive to provide a safe and supportive school environment. Through these support systems both students and educators can gain confidence and stay motivated in these uncertain times. It is in the face of uncertainty where we begin to discover what we are truly capable of. \n\n\n\nNishnawbe Aski Nation (NAN) Best Practices in Education 2022 is a forum where educators and policy makers can connect and share knowledge and experiences with one another. This year’s theme is Embracing Growth in Times of Change. Our focus is on how we can adapt to ever-changing circumstances and prioritize mental health and wellness. Like the caterpillar breaks out of its cocoon to become a butterfly\, we are all embracing our growth to leave these times of unpredictability as more inspired\, confident\, and capable educators. \n\n\n\n\nLaunch Virtual Event\n\n\n\n\nPLEASE NOTE: Only registered Attendees and Speakers will have access to the virtual event space.
