East Fraser Valley & the Canyon, British Columbia, Canada

Hi, my name is Donna

I am a proud Métis woman. My indigenous heritage is from the Alexis Nakota Souix Nation, Lac St Anne, Alberta/French Métis on my father’s side and English on my mother’s side.

My passion is connecting with communities while building trusting relationships.

I provide no cost indigenous and nonindigenous prevention services to the East Fraser Valley and the Canyon.

I am an independent contractor with the BC government.

I facilitate presentations and workshops that bring an awareness about the concerns related to gambling, video gaming/social media as well as health topics that help people to bring balance to their lives.
