Departmental Units

Each departmental unit contributes an important component towards supporting our mandate.

- Our work is extensive and we continue to face many challenges. Every person has gifts and when we bring our gifts together, Creator shows us the answers. This is how we will work together to strengthen and restore our sacred circles, our children and our future.
  - Kent Brown, Director of Human Resources
- Many Aboriginal organizations and communities have adopted the 7 guiding principles – or Seven Teachings – in one form or another, as a moral stepping stone and cultural foundation. At Southern Network, we look for the core competencies related to the Seven Teachings to be present in anyone considering a career with us or our Member Agencies.
