Process: Review of all components of NIHB policies, guidelines, etc; 2. Access: Analysis of access to include but not be limited to, access to services, information, choice, cultural appropriateness of the service. This will also be looked at through the Social Determinants of Health lens. It will include a survey of clients of NIHB with specific questions to obtain client input on their experience in accessing NIHB and the barriers they faced. Access flow charts will be developed to demonstrate the accessibility of services as compared to non-First Nations accessing the provincial system; 3. Cost: Cost analysis includes both prospective and retrospective costs, expenditures within the unique context of the population served including social and economic conditions. The JRSC agreed to review all six benefits of the NIHB program including medical transportation, vision, dental, pharmacy, medical supplies and equipment and short-term crisis intervention mental health counselling (STCIMHC).

It has been well documented that even in the CMAs where census data is available, it often significantly underestimates the true size of the Aboriginal Regina Qu’Appelle Health Region population. This occurs for many reasons, including the fact that Aboriginal people tend to fill out fewer The purpose of this brief paper is to provide a census forms. Moreover, conventional methods for preliminary analysis of available population and estimating the gap in reporting do not always take demographic data for the First Nations and Métis account of the larger size of Aboriginal people who live within the geographic

  • DARLENE ROSE OWENS, Deceased

At the time of her death, Darlene Owens was 23 years old and living at Pauingassi First Nation. On the night of October 19, 2005 Ms Owens, having consumed alcohol, went to a residence where her father was staying and caused a disturbance by banging on the door. After she refused to leave, her father, fearing she would break the window in the door, called the Band Constable on duty that night and requested that Ms Owens be detained in cells until she was sober. Band Constables attended and took Ms Owens into custody. She was taken to a trailer being used by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and the Band Constables as a detention facility. While she was in custody, Ms Owens ripped a piece of her t-shirt which she used to hang herself from the door knob of the cell. She was discovered by Band Constables who made efforts to resuscitate her unsuccessfully.

Gerontechnol- ogy 2019;18(3):142-155; https://doi.org/10.4017/gt.2019.18.3.002.00 Exploration of user needs for technology is critical for adoption and sustained use. We qualitatively examined needs for technology to enhance the wellbeing and support independent living of North Ameri- can Indigenous older adults requiring dementia care. We partnered with Indigenous older adults, caregivers, health practitioners and a Community Research Advisory Committee in the File Hills Qu’Appelle Tribal Council. We sampled participants who were either cop- ing with their own memory loss, caring for someone with dementia, or had knowledge of dementia programs and services. Interview data were gathered in three focus groups, two one-on-one interviews at a local Indigenous gathering place, and with one one-on-one telephone interview (n = 43). Many respondents recognized the value of technology for dementia care, but many responses reflected unmet needs related to technology infrastruc- ture, with frequent mention of unstable internet access in and around Indigenous com- munities.

The directory also serves as a means of improving communications among people. The idea for the directory arose from the desire to make information about Aboriginal organizations more available to the public. This directory was first published in 1975 and has grown considerably since its initial edition, which had 16 pages compared to the 100 pages of the present edition. The directory reflects the vitality and diversity of Aboriginal cultural traditions, organizations, and enterprises. The editorial committee has made every effort to present in this directory an accurate and up-to-date listing. Fax numbers, Email addresses and Websites have been included whenever available. Inevitably, errors and omissions will have occurred in the revising and updating of this Directory, and the committee would greatly appreciate receiving information about such oversights, as well as changes and new information to be included in a future revision.

Consultation often takes place between communities with very different worldviews and political histories. Recognizing this context is key to successful consultation which can benefit Aboriginal groups and other stakeholders. 18.3 Participating Aboriginal Groups Identifying Aboriginal groups which may be impacted by the Project is difficult. Proximity of the proposed right-of-way (ROW) to reserves or communities cannot be the only measure as it may not engage all interested communities given the modern political landscape does not fully reflect traditional land use. Prior to the signing of treaties and the reserve system, Aboriginal groups had much larger areas of traditional land use (Binnema 2001, Peck 2010).

  • In Understanding Harm Reduction Policies and Programs for Aboriginal Peoples1
    The Role of ‘Kijigabandan’ and ‘Manadjitowin’ in Understanding Harm Reduction Policies and Programs for Aboriginal Peoples1 Colleen Anne Dell, PhD Research Chair in Substance Abuse, University of Saskatchewan & Senior Research Associate, Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse Tara Lyons, PhD Candidate Carleton University Kathleen Cayer Kitigan Zibi Anishnabeg Community Member Abstract Harm reduction policies and programs are gaining increasing acceptance as a promising practice to address high-risk substance use in Canada. A common premise of Western harm reduction initiatives is respect for substance users and their choices. An Aboriginal worldview extends this to understanding individuals, communities and their choices. This paper examines how the Algonquin concepts of ‘Kijigabandan’ and ‘Manadjitowin’ can be used to explore harm reduction’s value as a promising practice for Aboriginal social work. ‘Kijigabandan’ means to attempt to understand and develop personally from the process. ‘Manadjitowin’ means to honour someone or something once it is understood. This is a timely paper because at present there is no uniform starting place to address the value of harm reduction policies and programs as they relate to Aboriginal peoples. Native Social Work Journal Vol 7, pp.109-137 110 Colleen Anne Dell, Tara Lyons, Kathleen Cayer Introduction Harm reduction is a controversial term. It frequently incites debate and at times brings forth moral-based responses. For example, a very lively public dialogue has surrounded the establishment and operation of Canada’s only supervised injection facility, Insite, in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside (Beirness et al., 2008; The Province, 2008; Wild, 2002). Empirical-based and opinion-based deliberation has variously surfaced; it has spanned from the corridors of federal and provincial legislatures, to academic journals and public newspapers.
