Aboriginal Health: For the Next Seven Generations for the Children

The “For the Next Seven Generations for the Children” course is an important course in the Cultural Safety and Humility Learning Journey here at Island Health.

We know that as we learn and know more, we do better. The current version of this course contains some information that is inaccurate, outdated, and could even be considered harmful. We acknowledge that the course creators did the best work possible given their knowledge and the state of the organization at that time- we know more and want to do better.

This course is under revision. Revision will include consultation with local First Nation representatives, along with Métis and Inuit engagement.

The course remains open at this time as it is important to orientation to Island Health. We invite you to retake the course at a later date when it is updated, to gain new learnings and perspectives.
