As a diverse network of university and college-based chapters, NaHSSA seeks to address the unmet need of actively involving Canada's health and human service students in interprofessional education while promoting the attitudes, skills, and behaviours necessary to provide collaborative patient-centred care. NaHSSA has great potential to positively influence the educational and professional development of Canada’s next generation of health care providers and will become a premier pan-Canadian student federation capable of achieving great success in this area.
