The Anishinabek Nation, in partnership with WP Financial (funded by Indigenous Affairs Ontario), has launched a Community Assistance Program for citizens from each of the 39 Anishinabek First Nations. This program offers citizens (both on and off-reserve) access to support for challenges such as relationship concerns, family or parenting issues, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, coping with health issues, work-related challenges, and more.
Citizens who wish to access this program can contact Homewood Health directly and either talk to someone immediately, or schedule an appointment when it is convenient for them. Appointments can take place over the telephone, online using video conferencing, or in-person where and when available. This is a free service for citizens of the Anishinabek Nation.
CAP-Get-to-Know-Your-Community-Assistance-ProgramThe future of the Indigenous Studies Program as well as the approximately 140 students who were registered in the Indigenous Studies program at the University of Sudbury is in jeopardy.
The Anishinabek Nation Leadership Council has identified this as an opportunity for the Anishinabek Educational Institute (AEI) or other bodies or partnerships to explore securing the University of Sudbury Charter, which has been made available to Indigenous communities in order to ensure the continuation of the Indigenous Studies Program.
