CIHR provides us with two grants. One grant is to support national health-based programming—so healthy living and health research. We approach health messages for youth with a scientific lens. Instead of telling them to exercise, brush their teeth, and wash their hands, we show them the science behind those things. Taking a different view of those topics is critical in the aboriginal work we're doing. Also, promoting health research in Canada, connecting them to health mentors—that's CIHR. They also give us a small grant to do that work in the north.
