Information UpdateProgress on the implementation of the Labrador Innu Comprehensive Healing Strategy [June 4, 2004] In June 2001 the Government of Canada, represented by Indian and Northern Affairs Canada, Health Canada and the Solicitor General, initiated the Labrador Innu Comprehensive Healing Strategy, often referred to as the Healing Strategy. The Labrador Innu Comprehensive Healing Strategy is a joint holistic approach that moves beyond dealing with symptoms to addressing root causes. Seeking to develop new ways of looking at health services, social programs, governance, education and policing, the primary goals of the strategy are to restore health and hope, create strong communities and focus on building a future for the Innu communities. Progress to date on the implementation of the Healing Strategy includes:
It is important to remember that there are no quick solutions to the challenges facing the Innu and the Government of Canada is committed to providing sustained support over time. The long-term goal is to help the Innu build capacity within their communities to deliver and manage their own community programs and services.
