The Calgary Poverty Reduction Initiative - Aboriginal Strategy is the fourth goal of the CPRI Strategy. The Issue Strategist was hired in mid-January 2014 to develop this goal. To assist with the development an Aboriginal Advisory Committee was identified to support the Issue Strategist. The Issue Strategist reached out to many organizations working with the Indigenous population within the City of Calgary and was invited to participate in many advisory committees where information was shared and relationships were established. The relationships established helped identify issues and priorities to be addressed. The following solutions were identified to be the most critical in creating the transformative change that would begin the long-term strategy to support the Indigenous population of Calgary – the First Nations, Inuit, Métis, Status Indians, and non-Status Indians to be active participants in creating a meaningful space where Healing, Education and De-colonization programs would become a reality. The implementation of these types of programs would change the reality Indigenous people live in today.
