The Prince Albert Urban Indigenous Coalition (PAUIC) was formed in 2017 through a participatory process. Over 80+ Indigenous and non-Indigenous organizations and community members come together on a monthly basis to:

​

• Share information;

• Heal and reconcile; and

• Address the unique challenges in Prince Albert.

​

The PAUIC typically hosts gatherings once a month. Each gathering, an Elder or Knowledge Keeper from different nations and the Métis is invited to share a teaching with our Coalition. Other guests and presenters are also invited to share with the Coalition.

​

Janet Carriere, Executive Director of the Prince Albert Indian and Métis Friendship Centre and Dawn Robins, Executive Director of the West Flat Citizens Group Inc. are the co-hosts for the PAUIC. Prairie Wild Consulting Co. has been assisting with the coordination.

​

Key Priorities of the Coalition include:

• Inter-Agency Development – Coalition Participant Capacity Development (Getting to Know Each Other);

• Cultural Awareness and Events;

• Reconciliation;

• Coordinate Community Action Plan; and

• Communications.

​

Coalition efforts are supported by the Urban Programming for Indigenous Peoples Program through Indigenous Services Canada and many other supports provided by local organizations.

​

Everyone is welcome to participate in the PAUIC!
