About this service
The NCN Community Youth Cree Court aims to reclaim responsibility for our youth who commit minor crimes. Our professionals and Ketiyatisak (Elders) use holistic processes and traditional teachings to help these children make amends and restore community harmony.
The Court acknowledges many of our youth face struggles in their lives that led them to destructive choices. There are often generational issues that mean a child may not have a strong support system or helpful mentors. Once fully operational, the Court will help these children avoid the child welfare and criminal justice systems.
The Youth Cree Court was established in 2010. This innovative program is gaining recognition from the criminal and justice sector and other First Nations communities across Canada for its commitment to keeping our youth at home while leading them to a path of personal responsibility and citizenship.
