FNHA-registered and NIHB-enrolled counsellors bill the program directly, so you never see an invoice, a receipt or a reimbursement form.

In person. Wapan only matches for in-person counselling: a counsellor in or near Prince George you can sit across from.

Honestly, no. NIHB and FNHA don't cover Métis or non-status people, and Wapan is built around covered care. Métis Nation British Columbia may cover counselling for citizens, and Friendship Centres and community health centres can point you to low-cost care near Prince George.

An introduction takes days, and a crisis can't wait. Call Hope for Wellness at 1-855-242-3310 or call or text 988. Both are free, confidential and open 24/7.
