We’re establishing a Young Professionals Network (YPN) at ISC and CIRNAC and we need you!

We’re recruiting new general members all the time and establishing our future Executive Committee. Please contact us at aadnc.rjp-ypn.aandc@canada.ca if you are interested in joining us or if you have any inquiries.

Who We Are

The Indigenous Services Canada and Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Young Professionals Network (ISC/CIRNAC YPN), is an open and inclusive network consisting primarily of young professionals but open to all employees interested in continuing their professional development. As employees of this department, we acknowledge with gratitude and respect that the Headquarters office is located on the traditional and unceded Algonquin and Anishinaabe territory. In alignment with the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action and the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, we strive to ensure this network is inclusive of all young professionals, in particular for Indigenous employees, considering the nature of our work, and that our events recognize the history and legacy of the department. Our membership includes ISC and CIRNAC employees at all stages of their career, some new to the department, or to the government, but with a shared vision of an open and collaborative public service with opportunities for new ideas and initiatives.

ISC/CIRNAC-YPN will aim to:

  • Give young professionals a voice and increase their visibility within ISC and CIRNAC and the larger public service;
  • Enable a broader understanding of the public service in young professionals and newcomers to the public service through opportunities for learning, leadership, and networking;
  • Encourage interdepartmental and inter-sectoral communication, coordination and collaboration; and
  • Provide opportunities for ISC and CIRNAC employees to learn about the history of Indigenous peoples, including the history and legacy of residential schools, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, Treaties and Aboriginal rights, Indigenous law, and Indigenous–Crown relations, in alignment with the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Call to Action #57.
