Hi! I am the Health Manager for Saik’uz since July 2018, and recently elected to the FNHDA Board of Directors in September 2020.
My grandparents are the late Morris and Dr. Sophie Thomas, my mother is Minnie Thomas and late father, Lloyd Laboucan. I am from Saik’uz and sit with the frog clan. I have 3 adult children: 2 sons and 1 stepdaughter.
The teachings of the women in my life and ancestral teachings are the cornerstone of my life and also lay the foundation to my dedication and passion for the physical health of oneself, and to the health of the land; which is a large part of our wellbeing.
Our traditional practices of Saik’uz are an important factor to our wellbeing, and now weaved it into all services and programs delivered by our health to ensure our traditions and practises remain alive, and to have the opportunity to a traditional response to our health needs.
