Its purpose was to design and model a multi-agency approach to support regional community economic development. The CCP is supported by the Community Animation Program with additional assistance provided through the Rural Dialogue component of the Canadian Rural Partnership Initiative. In-kind contributions are also provided by Manitoba Intergovernmental Affairs. The CCP is a collaborative arrangement between selected communities, the Rural Development Institute (RDI) of Brandon University, Federal and Provincial agencies including: Health Canada, Environment Canada, Rural Secretariat (Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada), Western Economic Diversification Canada, Manitoba Intergovernmental Affairs, Manitoba Aboriginal and Northern Affairs and Manitoba Community Connections (Industry, Trade and Mines) and a community development association, Community Futures Partners of Manitoba. The stated goal of the CCP was and continues to be: “to build an understanding of sustainability; build capacity for community-based sustainability; identify and access information resources for community sustainability; and build understanding of and improving access government programs and services. The intent is to assist communities in building capacity that contributes to improving the health of the communities within a sustainable community framework.” 1 Now upon completion of its third year of operation, the Community Collaboration Project has successfully engaged four regions: • Northern Vision Regional Round Table • Southwest Regional Round Table • Bayline Regional Round Table • “Kivalliq”2 Regional Round Table. 1 Rural Development Institute “Community Partnerships in Northern and Rural Manitoba: A Proposal to Build Community Capacity and to Support Intersectoral Collaboration” September 17, 1999. 2 This regional round table does not yet have an official name. In the meantime, it will be referred to as the Kivalliq RRT which reflects part of the geographic area that it encompasses. Community Collaboration / A Review of Year III 1 Over the past three years, membership in the CCP Management Committee has expanded from four and now includes representatives from: • Health Canada; • Environment Canada; • Rural Secretariat (Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada); • Community Connections, Manitoba Industry Trade and Mines; • Community Futures Partners of Manitoba Inc.; • Manitoba Aboriginal and Northern Affairs; • Community Information Management Network (CIM – Net); • Western Economic Diversification Canada; • Community and Regional Development Initiative, Manitoba Intergovernmental Affairs; • Rural Development Institute, Brandon University. The vision of the Community Collaboration Project (CCP) is: “communities exploring and implementing processes to assist them in working towards becoming resilient, healthy and sustainable. Through a multi-agency and cross- departmental collaborative approach to facilitate joint planning and project development activities, communities will develop regional social, environmental and economic development strategies, often building from the individual communities’ Community Round Tables.” This vision is based upon values expressed in similar community-based approaches expressed by its members, specifically “Population Health”, “Community Economic Development”, and “Sustainable Development”. The CCP has combined these community-based approaches and adapted what is known as the “Round Table” process as its model for implementation. In the model developed by the Province of Manitoba’s Community Choices Program, a Round Table is a gathering of local community leaders representing the various interest groups in the community. Each Round Table prepares a community vision statement and development strategy that reflects the people and the priorities of the community. The CCP has taken the Round Table process and offered it as a community development process to regions within the province of Manitoba and more recently in a region that includes portions of Manitoba and the territory of Nunavut. Community Collaboration / A Review of Year III 2 In this process, the CCP provides a number of supports to the Regional Round Tables (RRT) including: • financial grants; • facilitators to assist in the initial organization of the RRT and its visioning exercises; and • access to and liaison with a wide variety of government departments, programs and services. The CCP, through the Regional Round Table process, provides those federal and provincial departments involved with an opportunity to work together with the common objective of supporting the existing Regional Round Tables and encouraging the formation of new RRT’s. The CCP is an operational example of a collaborative program delivery model that meets the needs of federal, provincial and municipal departments and local communities.3 The four RRT’s involved in the CCP are quite diverse and were chosen for that very reason. The Northern Vision RRT includes northern industrial communities and remote First Nation communities. The Bayline RRT is made up of primarily isolated Metis communities. The Southwest RRT is comprised of agro-based communities. Kivalliq encompasses a huge expanse of geography that crosses provincial boundaries and includes Aboriginal and Inuit communities as well as northern industrial communities in Manitoba and Nunavut. The objectives for Year III of the Community Collaboration Project (2001-2002) were: • to engage new communities in CCP activities; • to continue to support community and regional development activities for existing CCP regional round tables; • to continue to introduce and foster the use of technology as a community capacity building tool; • to share lessons learned; and • to conduct ongoing monitoring and a final review of the CCP. A summary of the review of each objective follows. 3 Intergovernmental Affairs, Province of Manitoba “Community Choices” <http://www.gov.mb.ca.ig/programs/community-choices.html>

The directory also serves as a means of improving communications among people. The idea for the directory arose from the desire to make information about Indigenous organizations more available to the public. This directory was first published in 1975 and has grown from 16 pages in the first edition to more than 100 pages in the current edition. The directory reflects the vitality and diversity of Indigenous cultural traditions, organizations, and enterprises. The editorial committee has made every effort to present accurate and up-to-date listings, with fax numbers, email addresses and websites included whenever possible.

  • Section M: Community Support
    Section M: Community Support Page 251 of 653 Community Support Health Canada’s Regional Advisor for Children Special Services has developed the Children’s Services Reference Chart for general information on what types of health services are available in the First Nations’ communities. Colour coding was used to indicate where similar services might be accessible from the various community programs. A legend that explains each of the colours /categories can be found in the centre of chart. By using the chart’s colour coding system, resource teachers may be able to contact the communities’ agencies and begin to open new lines of communication in order to create opportunities for cost sharing for special needs services with the schools. However, it needs to be noted that not all First Nations’ communities offer the depth or variety of the services described due to many factors (i.e., budgets). Unfortunately, there are times when special needs services are required but cannot be accessed for reasons beyond the school and community. It is then that resource teachers should contact Manitoba’s Regional Advisor for Children Special Services to ask for direction and assistance in resolving the issue. Manitoba’s Regional Advisor, Children’s Special Services, First Nations and Inuit Health Programs is Mary L. Brown.
