Partners will work together to develop training to be delivered through the Provincial government's existing training platform. This training will target mainstream justice partners, as well as additional specific training for specific justice professionals (e.g victim services), which will be identified through the needs assessment.

This multi-year project will address the challenges and opportunities presented by the centralization of the Gladue Courts in Toronto, Ontario. A key focus of this project will be to ensure greater Indigenous input into decisions about the Gladue Courts and how they incorporate Gladue Principles.

The Kativiik Program will reach out to Inuit family members directly affected by the experience of losing a loved one who is either missing or has been murdered. A trained and qualified Inuit outreach worker will provide culturally responsive, community-based, Inuit-specific, trauma-informed counselling. The outreach worker will also conduct Inuit specific peer support groups with the family members and provide access to Inuit Elders when they request traditional healing. The worker will also act as a liaison and link Inuit families to appropriate services offered in the community for more long-term supports. The Program will also include support group meetings, community meetings to hear feedback, concerns or new issues and a community dinner to support and honour the strength and resilience of the Inuit community in Winnipeg.
