Purpose

The purpose of this summit is to:

• Support and empower Ontario First Nations women in leadership or interested in leadership

• Provide an opportunity for First Nations women and women leaders to share their experiences, challenges and successes and to network

Join female First Nations leaders across Ontario for three days of sharing, networking, self-care, and strength-building. We invite Chiefs, councillors, advocates, and community leaders to spend time with other First Nations female leaders to hear each other, learn from each other, ask questions, and support each other in the challenging community work we know First Nations women do in their home communities.
