The Waseskun Healing Community, established in 1988, is a dynamic organization committed to providing a supportive healing environment for the men in our care. As one of six (6) Indigenous healing lodges—and the only one located east of Manitoba—we offer a unique approach to addressing past traumatic life experiences, including those associated with residential schools.
Our multidisciplinary team includes spiritual Elders and helpers, program staff, and administrative personnel. We work in partnership with the Correctional Service of Canada and Quebec Correctional Services.

-
Developing individualized healing plans based on each resident’s life story and experiences;

Collaborating with the Waseskun team and community partners to support residents’ successful and positive reintegration into their families and communities;

Performing all other related duties.
