NABIS recently received word that the Muttart Foundation will support a new "Information Exchange Infrastructure" at NABIS, enabling all staff to access a virtual private network and communicate with audio/visual support via web cameras. This will greatly benefit NABIS' regional programming in the full NW quadrant of Alberta involving offices in Edmonton, Edson, Grande Prairie, La Crete, and High Prairie. NABIS would like to extend our sincere thanks to the Muttart Foundation for their endorsement of the work of NABIS by way of this grant.
