The Thompson Region Division of Family Practice acknowledges that it is situated within the Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc territory on the unceded, traditional lands of the Secwépemc Nation, where we live, learn, collaborate and work together. It is with humility that we continue to strengthen our relationships with First Nation, Métis, and Inuit peoples in the Thompson Region. We are grateful to the Indigenous communities in our region who lend their support to providing culturally diverse and inclusive care for all.
