FPWC is proud to announce that What Justice Looks Like: Confronting Anti-Indigenous Racism and Building Safe and Comprehensive Mental Health & Addictions Systems for Indigenous Peoples is now available in French: Le vrai visage de la justice.
Anti-Indigenous racism in health care has long been a source of harm and a reflection of colonial violence. This report is the result of six roundtables held with 96 First Nations, Métis, Inuit, and non-Indigenous mental wellness workers who shared their experiences and insights on addressing and preventing systemic racism within mental health and addictions systems.
Key Themes:
- The impact of anti-Indigenous racism on First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples
- First-hand accounts from frontline workers
- Recommendations for systemic change
- The importance of Indigenous-led solutions and self-determination
March 21 – International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination:
As we mark the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, we reaffirm our commitment to confronting systemic racism and advocating for culturally safe and inclusive mental health and addictions services for Indigenous peoples.
