in response to a number of inquires over the past couple of days:

The National Association of Friendship Centres (NAFC) represents the
concerns of 111 Friendship Centres across Canada. Friendship Centres
provide social, cultural and recreational services to urban Aboriginal
populations, a group of people that traditionally fall through the cracks
between federal and provincial funding.

The NAFC is the largest national Aboriginal service delivery advocacy
organization. We spend a great deal of time dealing with government on
issues such as justice, crime prevention, AIDS, solvent, alcohol and drug
abuse, family violence.

We are also the first national Aboriginal organization to have electronic
access through the Internet.

Questions and concerns about our organization, and Friendship Centres in
general can be directed to myself.

Thanks for your indulgence!

Chris Corrigan.
