Fort Good Hope Community Cancer Care Workshop
Join us in Fort Good Hope this May for a two-day workshop dedicated to connection, healing, and community care. Together, we’ll share stories, honour traditions, and learn from incredible leaders about supporting those impacted by cancer.
This workshop help inform next steps in improving the quality of cancer care services for NWT while also equipping participants with new information and skills to improve cancer care in the community.
In additional to sharing circles, group discussions, and presentations, the workshop will feature traditional medicine making, a fur earring making activity, and a local launch of the Book of Hope.
