Adverse Childhood Experiences: First Nations (ACE-FN)
EF 2012-13
Résumé
In the USA adverse childhood experiences (ACE) have been demonstrated to have an incredibly detrimental impact on health, social and economic risk. Given that Canadian First Nations communities have been greatly impacted by Residential Schools this study will explore the impact of these schools in a large First Nations community in Northern Ontario. We will adapt the methodology used in the USA study (ACE) and make use of current technology (Electronic Medical Records) to collect data in partnership with the North Shore Tribal Council. Further we will use Geographical Information Systems to portray and analyse the results of our exploration allowing up to visually represent the impact. This research will allow us to better target programs to help communities work towards reconciliation and healing; reducing long term risks and the impact of previous adverse events on future generations.
