Experiences of land-based treatment program for Indigenous people: a mixed-methods study of Gwekwaadziwin Miikan
The Gwekwaadziwin Miikan land-based treatment program provided connection with Indigeneity and with the land that might counteract processes that dispossess Indigenous people of their land. These findings can help support the wider implementation of land-based treatment programs and similar programs that centre Indigenous learnings and healing practices.
