Violence and healing : data on family violence and healing among the Innuat of Uashat mak Mani-Utenam / by Danielle Descant ... [et al.]. : Z1-1991/1-41-27E-PDF
“The research project took place in the summer of 1993 and involved 30 participants from the communities of Uashat and Mani-Utenam, Aboriginal reserves of the Innu Nation on Quebec's North Shore. The aim of the study was twofold: collect basic data on violence in these communities and assess participation in a healing circle as a means of raising awareness of family violence. The study represented a community research/action initiative. Participants were grouped into four healing circles; three women's, one men's with about eight people per circle. They met eight times to explore themes dealing with violence and the search for solutions. The data, collected in the form of first-person accounts, revealed various forms of violence inflicted upon women and men during their childhood and adult years. It should be pointed out that the participants spoke at great length about violence inflicted by both women and men on their children. Children are as much the victims of the victim (mother) as they are of the abuser (father)”--Summary, p. v.
