IT’S TIME is a free 2-day workshop for wellness workers from communities across Treaty 6, Treaty 7, Treaty 8, and the homeland of the Métis peoples. It focuses on culturally based ways to help people quit smoking commercial tobacco products (like cigarettes).

With support from a guiding Elder, participants at the Workshop will:

  • • Explore the differences between sacred tobacco and commercial tobacco
  • • Share ways to help people quit or cut down on commercial tobacco
  • • Learn how wise practices can help people on a quit journey
  • • Discover tools to adapt for local communities

If you’re interested in attending the IT’S TIME Workshop in spring 2025, please reach out to Darrel Melvin by email: darrel.melvin@ahs.ca. Bursaries may be available to help cover the cost of travel, hotel, and food.
