The Proposed Project

Sagamok Anishnawbek First Nation is proposing a new Child and Family Services Hub Complex Project. This building will be approximately 4,800m² in footprint and serviced by municipal water and hydro, wastewater disposal through a septic field, electricity and heating. As the site is undeveloped, physical activities include site preparation, clearing, grubbing, and installation of possible road and parking base. The project is well aligned with Sagamok Anishnawbek First Nation planning initiatives and goals of the community leadership, youth and elders and will address the existing gaps regarding the needs of the community's children under the Jordan's Principle.
