The First Nations Regional Early Childhood, Education and Employment Survey (FNREEES, or REEES) was created to address a long-standing data gap that existed around early childhood education and development, youth employment and education, adult employment and education, and labour-market conditions in First Nations communities.

Launched in 2013, the REEES was conducted and carried out by the First Nations Information Governance Centre (FNIGC), a non-profit First Nations organization, in collaboration with its Regional Partner organizations (representing 10 provinces and two territories).

The most technically complex survey ever undertaken by FNIGC, the REEES was a unique initiative, marking the first time this breadth of information had ever been collected in First Nations on-reserve and Northern communities. The baseline data collected through the REEES offers valuable information on key indicators on a range of topics spanning the life cycle.
