sâkîyıso. Understanding and Building Healthy Relationships: A First Nations Violence Prevention Teacher Guide
sākīyıso – Understanding and Building Healthy Relationships uses Cree/Nehiyaw cultural knowledge to support the development of healthy relationships amongst peers, dating partners, family and community. Indigenous languages, Tipi Teachings, videos featuring Indigenous youth and Elders, and the preparation and hosting of a traditional feast, support the development of protective factors that prevent violence against self and others. sākīyıso also provides a historical approach to explain the effects of colonialism and internalized oppression as they impact on the mental health of young people, and demonstrates a sustainable, self-reflective spiritual and cultural path forward. Fifteen lessons in four units provide comprehensive knowledge of best relationship practices and cultural teachings for healthy families, communities, gender and sexuality differences, healthy dating relationships, and anti-bullying.
