Ql What is a Healing Lodge? Al The Healing Lodge will be a facility for Aboriginal women • under federal sentence, where the needs of. Native women will be addressed through culturally sensitive teachings, ceremonies, contact with Elders and children, and interaction with nature. The Healing Lodge will operate from a unique cultural perspective, placing high value on spiritual leadership, as well as on role modelling and the life experiences of staff, and the physical space and programs will reflect Aboriginal culture. The Healing Lodge 'concept is being developed in partnérship with Aboriginal people. Q2 Who are the people that you refer to as developing the Healing Lodge? A2 The Healing Lodge Planning Committee consists of representatives from Aboriginal women's organizations and CSC staff. The external Aboriginal members were drawn from nominations from the Aboriginal Women's Caucus and the Native Women's Association of Canada, the two National organizations represented on the Task Force on Federally Sentenced Women. The committee is supported and advised by Native Elders. Q3 Will Native women have to serve their sentence in the Healing Lodge? • A3 No. The Healing Lodge is an option developed in response to a stated need to provide culturally sensitive programs for Native Peoples within the Justice system. Should a Native woman choose not to serve her sentence at the Healing Lodge, she would be eligible for placement at the appropriate regional facility. Q4 Why will the Healing Lodge be located in Saskatchewan and not in Manitoba or Alberta? A4 CSC analyzed the historic distribution of federally sentenced Aboriginal women based on place of sentence and • determined that the home communities of the majority of -2- these women were in Alberta or Saskatchewan. Locating the Healing Lodge facility in Saskatchewan is consistent with the model and will allow the majority of federally sentenced Aboriginal women to serve their sentences closer to their homes, families and children. Taken together, the Alberta Regional facility and the Saskatchewan Healing Lodge will provide a broad range of correctional options for federally sentenced aboriginal women from the Prairie provinces. Q5 Why was Maple Creek chosen? A5 In the words of the Healing Lodge Planning Committee: "The strengths presented by this community which set it apart from others have a lot to do with Aboriginal history, Abôriginal spirituality, clean land, pure spring water, co- operative living, traditional ways, 'humility, self- sufficiency and a welcoming spirit". Q6 How can you be sure that the people of Nekaneet/Maple Creek will welcome a facility in their area? A6 In order for the Healing Lodge to be a success, it is imperative that it have the support of a nearby Aboriginal • community, therefore, community support was an important consideration in the location selection. It was clear from the Nekaneet/Maple Creek submission that its people would have a strong feeling of responsibility toward the women. It was also clear that the community would be able to support the healing of the women through the sharing and teaching of Aboriginal ways in order to prepare women for return to urban or home communities. Q7, Is there an appeal process for those communities who submitted proposals but were not selected? A7 Understandably, the communities which were not chosen will be disappointed. The quality of all of the submissions was very high. Each proposal was carefully assessed. Based on a detailed review of a number of factors, I have come to the conclusion that the location chosen will best meet the needs of Aboriginal women under federal sentence. • -3- Q8 What is the next step in the process? A8 The next step in the process for the Healing Lodge is the selection of the specific land for the new facility. Public Works Canada in consort with the CSC and the Healing Lodge Planning Committee will work with the selected community to identify available and suitable land. The site must both meet the needs of Aboriginal federally sentenced women, including cultural and spiritual needs, as well as construction standards. Q8b When will construction begin, and how long will it take? A8b Construction will begin as soon as preliminary tasks such as site selection, land acquisition and facility design are complete. Extensive consultation with private agency 'groups, Native communities, other féderal government departments and provincial/territorial authorities will be required during this process. Q9 How many of the federally sentenced women are Native? A9 Of the 317 women incarcerated under federal sentence, on March 31, 1991, 49 were Native. This means that 15% of our female offender population is Native while only 2% of the • general population in Canada is of aboriginal ancestry. h Q10 Is the one Healing Lodge sufficient to serve all Aboriginal federally sentenced women? A10 Yes. 15% of federally sentenced women are of self-declared Aboriginal ancestry, the majority of whom were residents of the Prairie provinces at the time of their arrest. The Healing Lodge will be of sufficient size to house all of the Aboriginal federally sentenced women from the Prairies. It will also permit Native women from other regions to serve all or part of their sentence there. Q11 What will the size of the new facility be and how many staff will it employ? Al1 The Healing Lodge will be a relatively small facility compared to other correctional facilities.

  • Overview of Indigenous Services Canada Initiatives
    Annex 8 OVERVIEW OF INDIGENOUS SERVICES CANADA INITIATIVES FOR THE INFORMATION OF THE COMMISSIONERS OF THE NATIONAL INQUIRY INTO MISSING AND MURDERED INDIGENOUS WOMEN AND GIRLS Introduction Housing is a fundamental need and all Canadians, including Indigenous peoples, should have access to adequate, safe and affordable housing. Nearly one in five Indigenous people live in housing in need of major repairs, and one in five also live in overcrowded housing.1 It is understood that overcrowding and poor housing conditions can be a contributing factor to family violence, sometimes causing people to leave their communities. Households in Canada’s north, particularly Inuit women and girls, are more likely to be in core housing need and face the most crowded living conditions in all of Canada. This situation contributes to homelessness, particularly among Inuit women, and has a direct negative impact on a number of health concerns such as family violence, respiratory illnesses, and children’s ability to learn. Indigenous Services Canada (ISC) and Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada (CIRNAC) work collaboratively with partners, including the Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC), to improve access to high quality services for First Nations, Inuit and Métis. The Government of Canada’s vision is to support and empower Indigenous peoples to independently deliver services and address the needs and challenges in their communities. ISC welcomes the opportunity to share its initiatives in this area with Commissioners of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (the Inquiry), and will focus on what we are providing now along the housing continuum, and our plans going forward, to support better outcomes for Indigenous peoples, particularly women and girls.
