Have you ever wanted to go back to school but never had the opportunity? Have you ever wanted to become a health professional? Are you currently in school in a health career and having difficulty making ends meet?

If so, the Métis Nation of Ontario may be able to assist you through our new funding program for Métis students. The program is designed to assist Métis students from Ontario who are interested in becoming a health professional or who are currently involved in health career related programs.

This exciting funding opportunity is available through the Métis Health Human Resources Initiative which is a four year national program funded by Health Canada.

Based on our best knowledge and understanding of population size, there are not enough Métis working in our health care system. Our goals include creating a representative workforce which includes appropriate numbers of Métis physicians, nurses, physiotherapists, pharmacists, dentists, and other health care providers to be responsive to the unique and diverse needs of Métis people.
