Equay-wuk announces new "Healthy Families Healthy Nations" project
The Healthy Families, Healthy Nations Program is a three-year project funded by the Ontario Women's Directorate-Violence Against Women Prevention Innovations Fund. It's focus will be to develop a wholistic family violence prevention model for First Nation communities. The multi-phased project is intended to improve community views of domestic violence as a larger, societal problem and not just an isolated incident. The Healthy Families, Healthy Nations Program will incorporate input from community members, focus groups, and service providers.
