The main focus is to enhance the strengths of First Nations individuals, families, groups and communities, supporting self-determination.

First Nations spirituality, philosophies, ideologies, knowledge systems and methodologies are the foundation of the School of Indigenous Social Work. It is our communal belief in First Nations self-determination, and our respect for the strengths of First Nations cultures, that maintain our commitment to ensuring that we, as faculty, administration and support staff, continue to develop, research, share and fully honour this foundation.
