As a national network, CanHepC acknowledges that our members are based across the country on diverse traditional First Nations, Inuit and Métis (Indigenous) lands and territories. We express gratitude to the Indigneous peoples who have acted and continue to act as stewards of these lands.
CanHepC's administrative base is at the University Health Network in Toronto, which is situated on the traditional territories of the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat. As a network, we acknowledge that historical and ongoing colonialism and racism have contributed to the disproportionate burden of hepatitis C among Indigenous peoples in Canada. We strive to work collectively towards reconcilitatory actions that support Indigenous self-determination, health and wellness.
Our governance structure
CanHepC is governed by an integrated and interactive structure of committees, working groups, and platform teams which oversee the implementation of the network.
