Alternate Title
Review of victim services in Nunavut, Northwest and Yukon Territories
Créer un cadre de sagesse communautaire : examen des services aux victimes dans les territoires du Nunavut, du Nord-Ouest et du Yukon.
Summary
"Between January 2001 and August 2002, an extensive consultation was undertaken with victim
service providers, community-based service providers and government officials across the three
northern territories. This project had a number of inter-related tasks and objectives. In addition to
developing a comprehensive inventory of services currently available to victims of crime in
Nunavut, the Northwest Territories and Yukon, the project also identified best practices,
challenges, and gaps in delivery of victim services in the territories.
This report summarizes the findings from that consultation process and makes recommendations to
address the issues raised. The recommendations are grounded in the context of each territory."--Page vii.
