Promoting an anti-racist environment, and calling out discrimination as we work and provide care, is important to us. We are located in Mi'kma'ki, the unceded and ancestral territory of the Mi'kmaq people. Working in Mi'kma'ki and providing care to those across Atlantic Canada is a shared privilege with the original inhabitants who have lived here for many thousands of years prior to colonization.

We have the highest percentage of people with disabilities in the country.

We want IWK Health to be a safe and supportive space of equity and belonging in the care we provide and the employment we offer.
