MISSION
Empowering Inuit Identity
The mission of the Urban Inuit Identity Project (UIIP) is to educate health care, social service and educational facilities about the cultural uniqueness of our Inuit to provide culturally safe care, and support that empowers Inuit identity so that our Inuit will be fairly represented in the fabric of Canada’s social safety nets.
Urban Inuit Identity Project also creates Inuit craft workshops, and facilitates the sharing of Indigenous cultures through exhibitions and pubic gatherings.
We also provide consultation and organizational support where needed.
