About Us

What's In A Name? 

It all began in a health care meeting, when an elder inquired, "what's your Wood Buffalo?". She shared that the Wood Buffalo provided food, shelter and tools for Indigenous people. Her ask was a request for us to have a clear purpose for the community. That thought-provoking question became our "why" and the compass that guides us in every decision. No matter the organization or community, we put purpose at the forefront
