Abinotci–Mino Ayawin (Children’s Healing)
The Abinotci Mino-Ayawin Program is a voluntary home visiting program which supports Indigenous families and caregivers living in Winnipeg who are expecting a child and/or have children up to six years of age residing in their home.
The primary long-term focus of our program is on the health care needs of the children and their families/caregivers
Program intakes are done continually throughout the year.
Our program promotes the healthy development of young children who face challenges that put their health at risk, such as poverty, social and geographic isolation, substance use, and family violence.
