Résumé
Nunavut will undertake several activities over five fiscal years to advance victim services and access to justice for victims and their families. Activities will include providing supports and services for victims of crime and Canadian Victims Bill of Rights components of the victims’ rights to information, participation, protection and right to seek restitution are implemented with culturally appropriate measures. In addition, Nunavut will also provide financial assistance programs for victims and their families to attend court proceedings, especially when hearings are held in Iqaluit or other regional hubs. This directly supports the Canadian Victims Bill of Rights principle of participation, ensuring victims can be present and heard during proceedings such as preliminary hearings, trials and sentencing. By grounding the program in these Inuit values, we ensure that services are culturally safe, trauma-informed, and responsive to the diverse needs of victims in Nunavut, while reflecting the federal principles for victims of crime.

Description (French)
Le Nunavut entreprendra plusieurs activités sur cinq exercices financiers afin d’améliorer les services aux victimes et l’accès à la justice pour les victimes et leurs familles. Ces activités comprendront la prestation de soutien et de services aux victimes d’actes criminels et la mise en œuvre, selon des mesures culturellement appropriées, des composantes de la Charte canadienne des droits des victimes, soit les droits à l’information, à la participation, à la protection et à la réparation. De plus, le Nunavut offrira des programmes d’aide financière aux victimes et à leurs familles pour leur permettre d’assister aux procédures judiciaires, particulièrement lorsque les audiences ont lieu à Iqaluit ou dans d’autres centres régionaux. Ceci appuie directement le principe de participation de la Charte canadienne des droits des victimes, garantissant ainsi que les victimes puissent être présentes et entendues lors des procédures telles que les audiences préliminaires, les procès et le prononcé de la sentence. En ancrant le programme dans ces valeurs inuites, nous veillons à ce que les services soient culturellement sécuritaires, tiennent compte des traumatismes et répondent aux divers besoins des victimes au Nunavut, tout en respectant les principes fédéraux relatifs aux victimes d’actes criminels.
Expected Results
Enhanced capacity to deliver appropriate services that respond to victim and survivor needs.
Expected Results (French)
Capacités renforcées de prestation de services appropriés et adaptés aux besoins des victimes et survivants
