About this service
The program aims to address immediate mental health needs as well as intergenerational trauma and violence experienced by many of our community members. Biigajiiskaan recognizes systemic racism through the history of colonization including institutional trauma caused by Residential Schools and Indian hospitals and validates the loss of Indigenous identity, knowledge and culture. The program creates a more positive experience for Indigenous people, within the health care system, by reinstating the importance of Traditional Healing.
By providing culturally-safe and accessible mental health care to Indigenous peoples through an Indigenous lens, Biigajiiskaan creates connections with and beyond the Western-notion of mental wellness, and seeks ways to support community through relationships with the self, land and all of creation. It is through this holistic approach that Biigajiiskaan will improve the experience and quality of care that Indigenous patients and families receive.
