The youth spent time with special guest speaker Don Burnstick, who facilitated talking circles on a range of topics including Indigenous community healing, sober living and healthy lifestyles, and cyberbullying. The youth also attended the IIKELC Reach Out Workshop and Peer Leadership Mental Health Program, as well as a workshop with Bernice Clark and her husband where they learned how to make soap and spoke about healing in terms of Inuit culture. To sum up the experience that the youth had, we will quote Brianna Taparti, &#8220;I&#8217;ve made lifelong friendships during this program. This could not have gone any better than expected!&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We want to extend a big thank you to our sponsors, Northwestel and Calm Air, for making this program possible! <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"328\" height=\"307\" src=\"https:\/\/inuusiq.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/PLP-Workshops-Photo.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3786\" srcset=\"https:\/\/inuusiq.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/PLP-Workshops-Photo.png 328w, https:\/\/inuusiq.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/PLP-Workshops-Photo-300x281.png 300w, https:\/\/inuusiq.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/PLP-Workshops-Photo-13x12.png 13w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 328px) 100vw, 328px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover alignfull is-light pattern-latest-news\" id=\"More-Programs\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-gray-background-color has-background-dim-100 has-background-dim\"><\/span><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-cover-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-primary-dark-color has-text-color has-jumbo-font-size\">More Programs<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"showcase-content alignwide\"\n    data-name=\"archive\">\n    <section class=\"showcase-content__content-container\"><article class=\"content program\">\r\n\r\n        <div class=\"content__cover\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/inuusiq.com\/iu_in\/program\/atii-angutiit\/\" class=\"content__cover__image-box\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"294\" src=\"https:\/\/inuusiq.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Untitled-design.png\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/inuusiq.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Untitled-design.png 540w, https:\/\/inuusiq.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Untitled-design-300x163.png 300w, https:\/\/inuusiq.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Untitled-design-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/a>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    \r\n        <div class=\"content__taxonomy taxonomy-tabbed resource-categories\">\r\n                <span class=\"content__taxonomy__term\">Healing<\/span>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n        <h3 class=\"content__title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/inuusiq.com\/iu_in\/program\/atii-angutiit\/\">Atii Angutiit!          \u140a\u144f \u140a\u1591\u144f\u1466!<\/a><\/h3>\r\n    <div class=\"content__excerpt\"><p>A healing &#038; wellness program for men seeking to launch a positive movement of social connection, peer support and skill development among other men in Nunavut.<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n        <div class=\"content__taxonomy bottom\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <\/article><article class=\"content program\">\r\n\r\n    \r\n        <div class=\"content__taxonomy taxonomy-tabbed resource-categories\">\r\n                <span class=\"content__taxonomy__term\">Family<\/span>\r\n                <span class=\"content__taxonomy__term\">Healing<\/span>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n        <h3 class=\"content__title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/inuusiq.com\/iu_in\/program\/grief-care-packages\/\">Grief Care Packages<\/a><\/h3>\r\n    <div class=\"content__excerpt\"><p>For families across the territory that have experienced losing a loved one by suicide.
