Program Purpose:

This project seeks to develop and support the implementation of a proactive, long-term strategy for maximizing the benefits of White River Forest Products (WRFP) forestry operations to the people and economy of Pic Mobert First Nation. This project is specifically focused on increasing the employment of women and youth in the forest sector, including positions in manufacturing, forestry and administration. Through the project, community members are enrolled in post-secondary studies in skilled and/or professional programs related to mill operations, including scaling, forestry, accounting and engineering, and three to five new community ventures or co-ventures are expected to take place in support of the manufacturing and harvesting needs and operations of WRFP.
