Creating support in your community
Goba Group in Fort Good Hope
The Goba Group emerged from growing community concerns around cancer. Formally established after the Fort Good Hope cancer sharing circle in 2012, Goba is a group of committed resident volunteers dedicated toward addressing cancer awareness. The group has a diverse membership including wellness coordinators, store managers, health care providers, elders and youth.
Goba meaning Light of the Horizon, completed their first 5 year strategic plan in April of 2015, identifying the following priorities:
- Promote talking about cancer;
- Support community members to make healthy lifestyle choices that reduce their risk of cancer;
- Improve cancer screening rates in the community;
- Increase the support available to cancer patients, their families, and the whole community;
- Promote the importance of holistic health and healing, including traditional medicine and culture.
