Event Details

ONWAA will be hosting three (3) workshops for income assistance staff to gather, discuss, and design components of a culturally appropriate income assistance program. This will be a two-day interactive workshop that will provide best practices from income assistance models from around the World to generate ideas and facilitate discussions to identify essential supports and provisions required to live a culturally appropriate sustainable lifestyle in First Nations. Participants can expect to discuss and compare models from around the World, design elements of programming to meet Indigenous perspectives and needs, and explore strategies to design programming reflective of community needs and realities.
