health care council
The Indigenous Primary Health Care Council (IPHCC) proudly serves as a collaborative network of 24 Indigenous Primary Health Care Organizations across Ontario.
Our mission is to enhance the health and well-being of Indigenous communities through culturally relevant and community-driven primary health care services. By supporting the advancement and evolution of Indigenous primary health care service provision and planning, we ensure that Indigenous health remains in Indigenous hands, with culture as treatment.

This toolkit is designed to support Indigenous organizations with the planning and implementation of community-level COVID-19 vaccination clinics, in collaboration with mainstream organizations such as local public health units, primary care agencies, and/or hospital settings.
We would like to thank Dr. Annelind Wakegjig and Dr. Rebecca Wray for reviewing the Gashkiwidoon toolkit and lending their clinical expertise. Gashkiwidoon (gash-ga-we-toon) is an Ojibway word thought to mean ‘able to take, carry it’.
