Indigenous Health & Wellness
At Durham Community Health Centre (DCHC), we understand the vital importance of building trust within the Indigenous Community so that members feel comfortable to come to us for support with their health and wellness.
We work with leaders in the Indigenous Community to guide us in hosting workshops, events and activities that bring community members together and promote hope, belonging, meaning and purpose for Indigenous Peoples.
Activities, Events & Workshops
The Indigenous Team at DCHC hosts a wide variety of activities, events, and workshops for community members from our quarterly Big Drum Socials to Family Nights, Youth Groups, and Full Moon and Sunrise Ceremonies. See below for current and upcoming activities and events for our Indigenous Health & Wellness Program.

Through a partnership with Enaahtig Healing Lodge and Learning Centre, a Child and Youth Mental Health and Addictions Worker provides case management services grounded in an Indigenous culture-based approach for Status and self-identifying First Nations, Inuit, and Métis children and youth within Durham Region.
Our Indigenous Health Promoter and Community Facilitator facilitate a variety of programs for youth and families. Please call 905-723-0036 x 1072 for more details.
