Vision


Oahas also shares a common Vision with the Aboriginal Health Policy.
 
Vision Statement of The Aboriginal Health Policy
 
“The Ontario provincial Aboriginal Health Policy exists in the context of the inherent right to self-government.”
 
“Aboriginal health is holistic and includes the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of life. Through this    understanding of self, a vision of wellness balances body, mind and spirit and is promoted throughout the healing continuum.
 
Committed partnerships of Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people and governments will recognize and respect the diversities in lifestyles and traditions of Aboriginal people regardless of residency and status.”
