View service inventory entry Suggest a correction

The objective of the Federal Interlocutor's Contribution Program is to help to build capacity, and to maintain a relationship based on trust and respect between off-reserve Métis and Non-Status Indian people and the Government of Canada. This is achieved by: maintaining political relations with their representative organizations; acting as the point of contact within the federal government; acting as an advocate of their issues within Cabinet; entering into contribution agreements to help to build organizational and institutional capacity; and, building stronger linkages with provincial governments. In order to achieve these objectives, the Program supports work with Métis, non-status Indian and off-reserve Aboriginal organizations towards: * achieving practical ways of improving Métis and non-status Indians socio-economic conditions, * increasing self-reliance, and * reducing dependency.
