"Prepared for National Network for Aboriginal Mental Health Research in partnership with the Aboriginal Healing Foundation."
"Edited by James B. Waldram".
"In 1992, a national team of researchers was funded by the Canadian Institute of Health Research (CIHR) to form the National Network for Aboriginal Mental Health Research. One of the funded projects within this network was 'Models and Metaphors of Mental Health and Healing in Aboriginal Communities'. Working in conjunction with the Aboriginal Healing Foundation (AHF), several goals for this project were developed. .... In this publication, we wish to provide a substantial body of data and a pragmatic analysis built around passages offered by the clients and therapists/healers themselves. We want this report to offer guidance to other Aboriginal groups considering their own development of healing programs and to existing health care programs that are interested in developing more culturally appropriate services for an Aboriginal clientele. ..... An important theme that emerges from all of the chapters is the cultural, age, and gender heterogeneity of the client or patient base that is served by these programs. Of particular note, the researchers found that relatively few research participants had personal experiences as residential school students. Rather, what we found is that the legacy of the residential school system has left a deep impact on the social, cultural, and psychological make-up of these individuals. People continue to suffer because of the far-reaching impact of the schools, be it within their own families and communities or intergenerationally because of dysfunctional behaviours passed down from parents or grandparents who did attend. Combating this complex legacy is exactly what these programs are designed to do". pp. 1, 3.

"In my work ... I have discovered that little is known about strengths of healthy, nuclear and extended families of any of the Aboriginal cultures in Canada. This absence of information poses a huge challenge for anyone wanting to discuss how to make change in the lives of any Aboriginal population. Gender analysis of pertinent Aboriginal cultures is even more difficult to find..... In this guide, I share knowledge relevant to two target populations: (a) parents desiring to raise healthy, strong and responsible male children and youth; and (b) community workers and other leaders working with abusive and abused First Nations males. I draw on my formal education and what I learned non-formally and informally to be successful in my work as a probation officer, social worker, program planner, community leader, manager, post-secondary educator, son, brother, father, uncle and trusted friend". -- About the author, p. 23-24.

Its focus is trauma recovery for Survivors of residential school abuse, as well as for their descendants who suffer the intergenerational impacts. It is designed to serve two purposes.

"Widespread substance abuse, particularly alcohol abuse, among those who attended residential schools has been identified as both an outcome of the residential school experience and a contributing factor to other negative health and social problems among this group and among subsequent generations of Aboriginal people (Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples, 1996b). Although no research studies exist that specifically examine the ways in which residential school experiences contributed to current rates of FAS/ARBES [fetal alcohol syndrome/alcohol-related birth effects] among Aboriginal people, this report concludes that the residential school system contributed to high rates of alcohol abuse among those who previously attended the schools and among significant numbers of parents and community members who had their children removed from their care because of the school system. This report also concludes that the residential school system further contributed to alcohol abuse among subsequent generations of Aboriginal people, including women of child-bearing ages." -- Executive Summary.

"In June 2001, Corrado Research and Evaluation Associates Inc. proceeded with a research project to examine the mental health outcomes of a sample of 127 Aboriginal people who had litigated the federal government of Canada, the United Church of Canada, the Anglican Church and the Roman Catholic Church for the abuse they suffered as residents of the residential school system. The Aboriginal Healing Foundation (AHF) provided the funding and policy directions for the research, which is intended to assist in understanding the extent, types and effects of physical, sexual and psychological/emotional abuse on the mental health of a sample of Aboriginal Survivors of the residential school system. Three clinicians who have extensive experience working with Aboriginal Survivors collaborated in the development of the research project and provided the case files that constitute the data base for this report". -- Project Background, p. 1.
