The Wabano Centre for Aboriginal Health delivers health services and community programs to Ottawa’s Indigenous populations rooted in culture and traditional teachings.

Building on our long-standing partnership, Wabano hired Spruce for the planning, development and design of a new website. Through collaborative brainstorming sessions, Spruce gained insight into Wabano’s requirements and created a tagline that captured the organization’s essence: One circle. One centre. Many paths. The key web priorities included highlighting Wabano’s holistic healthcare approach, implementing a user-friendly event calendar and introducing sections for employment and donor support. Showcasing original Indigenous artwork, Spruce crafted a website that helps guide clients, staff and stakeholders on their Wabano journey.
