First Nations in Quebec have noted for many years that the current health and social services system does not adequately meet their realities and needs. The Quebec First Nations health and social services governance process stems from this observation made by First Nations regarding the need to renew the current governance structure.

The process is being carried out in collaboration with First Nations communities and organizations. Various mechanisms were implemented to ensure everyone’s involvement such as regional meetings, advisory committees and community visits.

The community tour consists of a series of meetings with communities and organizations. It allows to promote a shared and in-depth understanding of the underway governance process, to pursue the co-construction of the new governance model and to foster discussions aimed at supporting local and collective mobilization.
