Summary Service Plan

​​​​​​​​About t​​he Plan​​​​

​​​The FNHA Summary Service Plan is our operational plan for the next fiscal year.

Our Plan affirms the FNHA's guiding elements, including our vision, Shared Values and 7 Directives.

Our Plan articulates the FNHA's goals, outcome statements, objectives, and strategies, as well as a set of operational priorities for the coming year.

Paddling Together

The FNHA is pleased to present our Paddling Together: FNHA Health and Wellness video. This three-minute animated short encapsulates our commitment and guiding principles in our efforts to enhance health outcomes for First Nations communities across British Columbia.

This video is a visual product of our Paddling Toge​ther: First Nations Health Authority Health and W​ellness Plan​. Using the symbolism of a canoe journey, our plan represents collaboration between the FNHA, First Nations in BC and our governing partners. The video outlines our five goal areas and five guideposts and provides continuous guidance that steers our efforts and reflects our community-based, Nation-driven process.​​​

​​2026/2027 Plan

The 2026–2027 FNHA Summary Service Plan is Paddling Tog​ether: First Nations Health Authority Health and Wellness Plan.

The Plan builds on what FNHA learned and heard through engagements with First Nations across BC. It is informed by a comprehensive environmental scan that drew on diverse sources, including the First Nations Population Health and Wellness Agenda: First Interim Update, 2024, the FNHA-FNHDA-FNHC Three Pillars Shared Priorites, and key evaluation findings from the 2024 Evaluation of the BC Tripartite Framework Agreement on First Nation Health Governance and the 2024 Evaluation of the FNHA.

The refreshed Summary Service Plan plan reflects new and emerging trends and priorities shaping health and wellness services, influencing First Nations health outcomes and impacting FNHA's operating environment.

Our five goals are directly tied to the health and wellness plans of the five Regions.

Goal 1 – Drive health system transformation through the BC First Nations Health Governance Structure and partnerships.




Goal 2 – Enhance access to quality health and wellness services.




Goal 3 – Cultivate culturally safe mental health and wellness approaches.




Goal 4 – Advance First Nations approaches to addressing anti-Indigenous racism in health.




Go​al 5​ – Champion health and wellness innovation with First Nations and other partners.​




To direct our future work, the FNHA is also informed by five guideposts that keep us grounded as we work to implement our Plan:
