Finding Our Way: A Sexual and Reproductive Health Sourcebook for Aboriginal Communities

français»



Finding Our Way (2002) is the first comprehensive Canadian resource on sexual
and reproductive health within an Aboriginal cultural context. This 335-page
Sourcebook includes up-to-date information, teaching resources, program models, and personal stories on sexual and reproductive health issues as defined by Aboriginal peoples. It was co-produced by the Aboriginal Nurses Association of Canada 
and the Canadian Federation for Sexual Health.

Topics include:

  • Parenting
  • Grandparents
  • Residential schools
  • Sex education
  • Youth sexuality
  • Teen pregnancy
  • Women's sexual health 
  • Two-spirit people
  • Birth control
  • Healthy pregnancies and birth
  • Family violence
  • HIV and other STIs
  • Reproductive cancers
  • Men's sexual health, and more

Drawing on a wealth of existing materials and suggesting many more sources of information, Finding our Way reflects the diverse needs and realities of First Nations, Inuit and Métis communities and will be of interest to nurses, community health representatives, teachers, counsellors, youth workers, and community leaders.
