What it does

This Program groups departmental activities that support the capacity of Indigenous organizations to operate in a sustainable manner, their ability to effectively identify and represent the needs and priorities of their respective memberships, and to engage with the federal government to advance policy and program positions that address their priorities. These organizations may represent First Nations (Status, Non-Status, On-Reserve and Off-Reserve), Métis, or Inuit communities, as well as Indigenous women, 2SLGBTQQIA+ people, youth and other traditionally under-represented Indigenous people. Program objectives are advanced through funding support to Indigenous organizations as well as through the implementation of various Crown-Indigenous relationship agreements. These activities aim to facilitate Indigenous organizational capacity and engagement, to ensure Indigenous voices and priorities are reflected in program and policy direction. This Program addresses the government priority of renewing Crown-Indigenous Relations.
