Communications Advisory Committee seeking members- VANCOUVER COASTAL and FRASER REGIONS
First Nations Communications Advisory Committee -Call for Members- Vancouver Coastal and Fraser Regions
Purpose
Sound communication is critical to the successful implementation of the Tripartite First Nations Health Plan. It is essential that key messages and information flow between the FN Health Society and First Nations communities, political leadership (both Government and First Nations), Federal (including HQ and Region) and Provincial (including Health Authorities) partners, other Health Partners and the FN Health Council. The FN Health Society has recently concluded a communications strategy, and a Tripartite Communications Plan. Both documents are aimed at ensuring seamless, relevant and accessible information is available to Health Plan partners. Community voice is critical, as we strive to continuously improve upon existing strategies and approaches.
The purpose of the First Nations Communications Advisory Committee is to enable community-based experts to provide guidance and advice on the FNHC & Tripartite communications strategies, collateral, and messaging. We are seeking individuals from the Northern, Vancouver Coastal and Fraser Regions who have at least 3-5 years experience in the communications, public relations, or marketing field, and who reflect a balanced representation from different regions, diverse community make-up.
