About Us
IIKELC was established in 2004 through partnership efforts between the Government of Nunavut, Nunavut Tunngavik Incorporated, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, and many others.
We began with the recognition that there needed to be a coordinated initiative in addressing the high suicide rates in Nunavut. Our mandates, strengths, and concerted efforts are community-driven through the Inuit Qaujimajatungagit (Inuit Guiding Principles). It is our mission is to support and encourage Nunavummiut to value life.
