Recommended Resources for First Nations, Inuit, Métis & Urban Indigenous Peoples

Our Indigenous Cancer Care Unit aims to improve cancer care for First Nations, Inuit, Métis and urban Indigenous peoples in Ontario. The unit strives to reduce inequities in care and access to cancer services to ultimately improve cancer outcomes. It does this by building regional capacity through the Indigenous Navigators, Regional Indigenous Cancer Leads and Coordinators, and by developing Regional Indigenous Cancer Plans across the Regional Cancer Programs.
