COMMUNICATIONS

ABOUT US

The Communications Program (ComPro) posts content from all program areas through social media efforts, choosing news items, links, videos, photos and other resources on an as-needed basis. The goal is to choose quality content that would be of interest to our citizens, and that strengthens the image and recognition of CHN.

WEBSITE + HAIDA LAAS

This website houses a few different streams of communications. Part of our website is to keep Haida citizens up to date with CHN information, such as Citizenship, Governance and Elections notices. Another part is keeping the Islands’ communities updated with timely information. The last part of our website houses multi-media in the form of Haida Laas posts, issues, archives, podcasts, webinars, and photos.

SOCIAL MEDIA

The CHN Facebook page is where we post the most, but also have Instagram, Blue Sky and Mailchimp, which is our email list. From local job opportunities to community events, as well as ensuring Haida citizens are up to date.

CULTURE + LANGUAGE SUPPORT

ComPro connects with our language authorities: HlGaagilda Xaayda Kil Naay Skidegate Haida Immersion Program and Xaad Kíl Née, to ensure language is used and spelt properly.

EVENTS

For CHN events, ComPro reviews, edits and develops and distributes posters. ComPro does all audio, including setting up speakers, handing out listening devices to Elders and livestreaming the event.

PROJECTS

ComPro oversees Haida Place Name Restoration, Haida Language Strategic Plan, Haida Gwaii Pledge and many more.

PARTNERSHIPS

On occasion, ComPro and CHN take on partnerships in creating printed media products such as Haida language learning books, Haida storybooks, and seasonal round posters to name a few.
