Congratulations to professor Robert Boushel, Director of the UBC School of Kinesiology, on receiving the 2021 Spirit Award in Excellence in Partnership from the Pacific Northwest Division of Family Practice.
The award recognizes the dedication, passion, talent, and tireless effort of those working to provide significant contributions to meaningful healthcare initiatives in the north.

The Spirit Award is modelled after the rare and elusive Spirit Bear, the Province of BC’s official animal. The Spirit Bear represents healing, strength, peace, and harmony.
