About this service
LOVE has had satellite programs in the Mikmaq communities of Sipeknekatik and Membertou for over 10 years, run by Mikmaq staff from these communities. LOVE programs with non-Indigenous roots are adapted to suit the needs and realities of the communities we are serving. Sipeknekatik and Membertou both have MAP and Leadership programs that are tailored to each community. These programs incorporate many Mikmaq cultural practices and teachings, including smudge ceremonies, sacred fire, pipe ceremonies, talking circles, and healing prayer. All youth have 24/7 access to youth workers and a registered social worker. The Mi'kmaq programs have been transitioned online for the 2020-2021 school year.
