NunatuKavut Community Council Inc. (NCC)

Published purpose

Through this 41-month project, NunatuKavut Community Council (NCC) will increase its ability to prevent and address gender-based violence (GBV) against Indigenous women, girls, or 2SLGBTQQIA+ people in rural communities in Labrador with a focus on increasing health and wellness opportunities. This will be achieved by engaging the communities, creating a gender diverse advisory team and by developing and implementing a strategy to advance community wellness and holistic well-being. The project will reinforce NCC's ability to identify and participate in relevant legislation, policy, and programs that impact opportunities to reduce victimization amongst its population. By the end of the project, NCC will have strengthened their capacity to prevent and address GBV against Indigenous women, girls and 2SLGTBQQIA+ people, with a strong focus on community health and wellness.
