About
The Métis Family Connections – Elementary and Secondary Years is for families with Métis children from nine to 18 years old. Specialized Navigators ensure that MNBC can walk alongside our Métis learners and their families as they navigate their final years of the K-12 education system, right up to graduation. This program is focused on connecting families with community, culture, and opportunities to access relevant programs and services that support healthy transitions through elementary and secondary education to post-secondary education, skills training, and the workforce.
