FNHA Five-Year Plan
The renewal of FNHA’s Five-Year Plan provides an opportunity to shape the next five years of our journey towards “Healthy, Self-determining and Vibrant BC First Nations Children, Families and Communities.”
We are currently in the final year of the current plan, which includes a focus on
Health Planning as well as
Capital Planning.
During fall 2020, we will be gathering input on how to shape our organization’s path for the next five-year period, from April 2022–2027.

Closer to Home: Urban and Away-From-Home Health and Wellness Framework
The majority of First Nations people in BC live in urban areas or away from home. However, mainstream health services are not always accessible due to systemic, institutional, clinical and individual barriers. The Urban and Away-From-Home Health and Wellness Framework outlines high-level principles and strategic directions for expanding the scope and function of FNHA support for the urban and away-from-home population.
Health and Wellness Planning Toolkit
Coordinated planning is key to the success of the work ahead to improve the health and wellness of BC First Nations. The FNHA is leading or supporting planning processes at the organizational level (FNHA), as well as at regional and community levels. For the FNHA, this includes the annual Summary Service Plan, sets out our goals, outcomes, objectives, strategies, priorities and measures.
Moving forward, it's the health and wellness priorities of the regions that will increasingly drive the work of the health governance partners (the FNHA, the First Nations Health Council, the First Nations Health Directors Association and the Tripartite Committee on First Nations Health).
BC First Nations have called for the development of Regional Health and Wellness Plans to clearly identify their priorities. All five regions within BC have developed a Regional Health and Wellness Plan, and are utilizing these plans to guide their work with BC First Nations within their respective regions
Informed through regional processes, the FNHA works alongside the FNHC and FNHDA to achieve our Shared Vision of “Healthy, Self-Determining and Vibrant BC First Nations Children, Families and Communities,” and to pursue strong health partnerships and integration with federal and provincial governments.
Honouring the governance processes and standards that have led to the creation of this organization, the FNHA advances health system transformation and undertakes program and service delivery in a manner aligned with First Nations philosophies, perspectives and ways of being.
