  • In an effort to address the barriers and gaps in care experienced by African Nova Scotian and Urban Indigenous women in Kjipuktuk (Halifax, Nova Scotia), four organizations banded together to provide culturally-specific programming to address the issue of gender-based violence as it appears in these two communities. Inspired by Indigenous customary law and Afrocentricity, these programs aim to address the failures of our inherited colonial systems by connecting women with other members of their community in spaces where their culture is integrated into the care they receive. Although this project has seen huge successes so far, but there is still much to learn, and much more work to do.

    Conclusion
    2023/07/24

    In the final episode of the Creating Communities of Care Podcast, we review what we’ve heard over the past five episodes. If there’s one thing that we’ve learned in this process, it’s that culturally-specific and community-based approaches to addressing gender-based violence show promising results that speak to a larger need for these types of programs to be more widely available.


    There is a lot of work to do before the social problem of gender-based violence is fully addressed in our communities, but there is also a lot of hope.


    Hope that we can learn from mistakes and successes alike to build better systems and structures that support all members of society equitably. Hope that the women who receive help today are likely to become the individuals helping others tomorrow. And finally, hope that examples like the one set by the Creating Communities of Care Project are followed by more people, organizations, and institutions.


    We now know better, so it’s time to do better.

  • Culturally-Specific Programming

    Culturally-Specific Programming
    2023/07/17

    In the fifth episode of the Creating Communities of Care Podcast, we finally dive deep into culturally-specific programming: what it is, what it means for program participants, and the promise it holds for a better, more inclusive future.


    Each of the four partner organizations implement their own take on culturally-specific programming, borrowing from Afrocentric thinking and Indigenous customary law to deliver services that help make participants feel seen, heard, believed, and ultimately respected. The Mi’kmaq Legal Support Network’s sentencing circles are an example of this type of service delivery in action.

  • How the System Turns Victims into Criminals

    How the System Turns Victims into Criminals
    2023/07/10

    In the fourth episode of the Creating Communities of Care Podcast, we take a step away from the busy streets of Halifax to investigate the Justice System and the troubling overrepresentation of Black and Indigenous women in provincial and federal prison admissions.


    The Elizabeth Fry Society advocates for women involved in the Justice System. This advocacy looks different for each woman they work with, but what remains consistent is the organization’s commitment to their clients and to doing what’s right. In this episode we will hear how the Correctional Service of Canada treats women facing gender-based violence as equal participants in their partner’s abuse, often leading to their criminalization and eventual incarceration. But, we will also hear from the women who are working against these systems, and about the importance of hope when fighting a seemingly impossible fight.
