Cree School Health Project: Looking Back and Moving On

The main goal of the project was to produce Cree specific classroom instruction on serious issues threatening Cree health today, such as obesity, diabetes, family violence, aggression, abuse, sexually transmitted diseases, motor vehicle injuries, and suicide attempts. Many of these issues are at least partially preventable if people adopt safe and healthy ways of living, for example, eating healthy food, being physically active, practicing safe sex, and respecting themselves and their neighbors.
