The First Nations Centre is honoured to provide holistic support services to students, staff and faculty at UNBC. The First Nations Centre is a culturally safe and accessible space where leadership, academic growth, relationships, and personal supports are fostered.

We offer a wide variety of programs, services, and activities that help to improve educational outcomes for Indigenous students, create awareness and understanding of Indigenous perspectives and worldviews, and celebrate Indigenous culture. Our team is here to welcome everyone who visits or accesses the First Nations Centre.

Beyond supporting Indigenous students, one of the goals of the FNC is to help create dialogue and an understanding of Indigenous peoples and cultures to the wider UNBC community.

To stay up to date on all First Nations Centre programming, events, and supports, sign-up for our Listserv by contacting our Aboriginal Connections Coordinator, and follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

The FNC is accessible to all students not just Indigenous students - it is truly an inclusive environment.
