Subseries 2 - AHPP Advisory Committee

0.13 m of textual records (1 box)

Subseries consists of records related to Dr. Baines’s involvement with the AHPP Advisory Committee as Chairman (1986 – 1991) and a member (1991 – 1993). The Advisory Committee (also called the Executive Committee in the records) was primarily responsible for providing policy advice, program development, and the implementation of projects. The records document both the activities of the Advisory Committee and the AHPP itself. Materials include correspondence, agendas and minutes for Advisory Committee meetings; budgets; program statistics; activity reports; project descriptions, recruitment strategies; copies of newspaper clippings; lists of Indigenous students; and reference materials.

The correspondence includes letters and memoranda with various Advisory Committee members; AHPP staff; U of T administrators and librarians; Ministers and representatives of Health and Welfare Canada, the Public Service Commission of Canada, the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development (DIAND), and the Ontario Ministry of Colleges and Universities (MCU), Ministry of Health, Ministry of Native Affairs, including: F. W. Baker, Bill J. Bastien, Michelle Bourque, Elinor Caplan, George E. Connell, John Donnelly, J. Epp, Joan Foley, Marlene Grant-Castellano, Brenda LaFrance, Peggy Leatt, Diane Longboat, B. J. Mackay, Lyn McLeod, Carol Moore, David Neelands, J. D. Nicholson, Alan W. Roy, Ian Scott, E. M. Sellers, Chan P. Shah, Gregory Sobara, Beatrice Traub-Werner, and Peter Wright. Additionally, there is correspondence with several foundations including the Donner Canadian Foundation, Gladys and Merrill Muttart Foundation, Laidlaw Foundation, Max Bell Foundation, McLean Foundation, and Richard and Jean Ivey Fund.

Also included is a status report prepared by Dr. Baines which outlined the AHPP’s progress on the implementation of the recommendations of the Report of the Special Committee on Native Canadian Students. The conclusions of this status report ultimately led to the establishment of the Office of Aboriginal Student Services and Programs and the associated Management Committee for Aboriginal Programs and Services.

The majority of the materials in this subseries were removed from two binders entitled “AHPP Advisory Committee 1989 – 1991” and “AHPP Advisory Committee 1991 – 1992.” In addition to the AHPP Advisory Committee records, these binders contained some agendas and minutes from the Toronto General Hospital’s Administrative Council and a presentation from the Internal Medicine Collaborative Practice Group. The binder materials were originally arranged roughly in reverse chronological order; this order has been maintained within the files as indicated by the numbers in square brackets in the file titles.

Subseries is generally arranged chronologically, beginning with files containing reference materials and ending with the two sets of binder materials. Within the sets of binder materials, the files are arranged in their original reverse chronological order.
