Land Acknowledgment
We would like to begin by acknowledging that the land on which we gather is the traditional territory of the Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabeg. This territory is covered by the Upper Canada Treaties, is within the lands protected by the “Dish with One Spoon” wampum agreement and is directly adjacent to the Haldimand Treaty territory.
Today, this land continues to be the home of many Indigenous Peoples. Acknowledging ensures we reflect on our past and what changes can be made going forward to further the reconciliation process, and it reminds us that the great standard of living that we enjoy in Niagara is directly related to the resources and friendships of the Indigenous Peoples who make up this community.

The NOHT-ÉSON is proud to support today’s announcement at the Niagara Falls Community Health Centre: $2.7M in new funding from the Ontario government will connect 6,300+ people to primary care — with a focus on equity-deserving communities. 1/2
The NOHT-ÉSON has launched a health and social services survey to better understand the experiences, barriers, and ideas for improvement from equity-deserving communities — including newcomers, racialized and Black communities, and members of the 2S&LGBTQ+ community.
Temporary Primary Care Access Clinics are opening in Fort Erie and Port Colborne with select dates from July 1 through mid-September. The clinics help with minor health issues like sore throats, UTIs, rashes, and more. No appointment. Open to anyone permanently living in Canada.
