FNIGC and its regional member organizations were interested in supporting capacity development and providing credible, relevant information on First Nations while using the highest standards of data research practices.

What?
The FNREEES was a survey created by First Nations, for First Nations. It provided valuable insight and a better understanding of the opportunities and challenges that lead to success in early childhood, education, and employment for First Nations living on reserve and in northern communities.
The FNREEES was conducted in 28 randomly selected communities in Alberta by trained interviewers from the participating community. The FNREEES targetted 5 age groups, which were then sub-divided by gender.
Participants were randomly selected and could choose not to participate. The FNREEES was entirely voluntary.
