Integrated Approaches to Domestic Violence in the Aboriginal Community Course (IADV)
“Even though I came to the IADV course with knowledge of the history of Aboriginal people of Canada, this has brought everything together for me and has allowed me to integrate what I knew before with what I have learned,” she says. “It has given me skills to approach domestic violence in Aboriginal communities in a culturally appropriate and informed manner.”
-- Detective Sergeant Tracy Lowe-Wetmore, Ontario Provincial Police
