Health & Wellness Services
A core part of the Dehcho First Nations Health & Wellness Division’s work is the development of a range of regional services that focus on health and wellness. There are several areas that are in development, which include a connector program, a birth worker training prorgam and more. Stay tuned for more information as our staff develop these areas further. By creating our own health and wellness services, we are creating healing and wellbeing opportunities for our Members in ways that are reflective and aligned with the Dene way.
Service Connector Program
The Service Connector program seeks to support Dehcho Members with knowledge of, and access to, health and wellness-related resources and services available to them.
Birthworker Program
The Embée Dezǫą Ast’ehzį T’áh Gots’ágendi program aims to build community-based birth support knowledge and skills throughout the Dehcho region, while further supporting the revitalization, preservation, and continuation of the Dehcho Dene culture, knowledge, teachings, ceremony, and traditional practices related to pregnancy, birth, postpartum care, infant care, parenting, and family wellness.
