Miskanawah

Miskanawah (mis-con-a-wah, meaning "Pathways" in Cree) is our philosophical framework that is rooted in Indigenous teachings, ceremonies and guidance from Elders. These traditional values and beliefs have tremendous healing potential and are embedded within our service delivery practices. As its name implies, this approach guides individuals and families in building pathways to and within the community, strengthening their natural supports, and engaging in healthier ways of living. Miskanawah is a multi-service organization, offering programs for children, youth, families, and community. In addition to our core programs, we offer cultural resources to our clients and the public at large. These resources include: - Access to Elders - Accredited Aboriginal support, resource workers, and mentors - Aboriginal Cultural Awareness Training and Teaching - Talking/Sharing Circles - Traditional Ceremonies and celebrations
