First Nations Organizations
Strengthening and supporting your communities
Supporting First Nations’ financial independence – partnering for strong financial management in Aboriginal communities.

Overview
Fostering financial independence for First Nations
Federal and provincial budget reductions and Aboriginal autonomy have resulted in the transfer of First Nation services from governments to reservations. As a result, First Nations communities have been faced with the challenge of administering many of their own services while dealing with more stringent reporting requirements.
For over two decades, FCR has been working with many of Northern Ontario’s Aboriginal communities to help them grow many of the programs that they have instituted to strengthen and support their communities.
At FCR we aim to develop lasting relationships with our First Nations clients, working jointly to develop strong systems of financial management; what we believe to be an integral step to building stronger, independent communities.
