NEW BLOG: Visit our website to read "Genetic Counseling & Indigenous Health: Approaches For/From Non-Indigenous Allies."
This project incorporates work from Indigenous individuals and organizations, intending to improve genetics patient care and cultural competency for Indigenous clients. This guide is intended to be used by other genetic counseling and private practice healthcare and wellness professionals who might not be aware of the unique experiences of Indigenous people within genetic healthcare. We aim to tailor our patient care to Indigenous communities whose needs and wants are often unmet in healthcare settings.

"CIRA’s Indigenous stock photo library is a free-to-use resource created to honour Indigenous entrepreneurship and address the Indigenous representation gap in most online stock images... All images were captured by Indigenous photographer Shelby Lisk at Indigenous-owned locations (Adaawe, Beandigen Café and Mādahòkì Farm) with a cast of Indigenous models."
