Helping Spirit Lodge Society is dedicated to assisting in the alleviation of family violence in Aboriginal communities by providing safe, protective shelter to Aboriginal women and children, holistic educational programs, support and advocacy. We believe that it is the Aboriginal people who must set the agenda in providing solutions to problems that adversely affect their traditionally proud cultural inheritance.
Our primary task is to provide sanctuary in an alcohol and drug free environment and then engage participants in activities that are culturally relevant to them, to facilitate the healing process. The program provides a framework for the development of practical life skills in health management, home management, relationships, vocational training, goal setting and parenting skills.
