Additions to Reserve (ATR)<\/h3>\n

Additions to Reserve (ATR) is the process by which land is added to an existing First Nation reserve or a new reserve is created. This process, led by the First Nation and supported by Indigenous Services Canada (ISC) and Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada (CIRNAC), is often complex and can take several years to complete.<\/p>\n

The ATR process involves multiple steps, from preparing a proposal and securing a Band Council Resolution (BCR) to conducting environmental assessments, legal reviews, and consultations with stakeholders. While challenging, ATR provides significant benefits\u2014access to land and resources, economic opportunities, and long-term community growth.<\/p>\n

The Association is here to help. Our team provides hands-on support to guide lands managers through the ATR process. Whether you need technical advice, project management support, or training, we\u2019re committed to helping your community succeed.<\/p>\n
