We’re excited to announce a new, collaborative partnership with Indigenuity Consulting Group that will enhance our client offerings while advancing diversity, equity, inclusion and reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples.

"We’ve been working with Indigenuity for more than a year and are excited to take the next step to formalize our relationship," said Angela Carmichael (she/her), president of FHR. “This partnership will expand on the impactful, transformational work we’re already doing with our clients, bringing new perspectives to the table.”

Indigenous owned and operated, Indigenuity works with governments, businesses and communities to develop and deliver culturally appropriate consultations, strategic planning, facilitation and engagement. Through this partnership, FHR will bring its communications experience and proficiency together with Indigenuity’s history and expertise in Indigenous relations and consultation.

Together, we will provide clients with expert Public Affairs, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DE&I); and Public Relations counsel that amplifies Indigenous voices and provides a pathway to improved Indigenous relations and reconciliation.

“DE&I can't exist without Indigenous reconciliation, and we’re thrilled to be working with Indigenuity to broaden our expertise in this way,” said Jen Anthony (she/they), FHR senior vice president and DE&I practice lead in Canada. “This partnership will help our clients further build their relationships with Indigenous Peoples and provide them with opportunities to invest in reconciliation.”

“We know that for reconciliation to be successful, we need to build strong partnerships,” said Janis Brooks (she/her), Vice-President of Indigenuity. “We look forward to continuing our work with FHR, and to offering our clients new solutions to build their capacity and integrate reconciliation and DE&I into their everyday practice.”

“As our public affairs practice continues to grow across Canada, we’re seeing governments increasingly expecting full engagement and participation with Indigenous Peoples in multiple areas of public policy decision-making. Our partnership with Indigenuity will offer our clients much-needed insights and connections that are critical to their success,” said John Capobianco (he/him), FHR Public Affairs practice lead.
