Transforming Lives through Holistic Healing

Our Centre offers a ten-bed residential facility with certified, trained staff. We serve Innu, Inuit, and First Nations individuals, youth and families from Atlantic Canada, here in Sheshatshiu making a long lasting impact in peoples lives.

By fostering spirituality and reconnecting with the land, we aim to nurture self-confidence and develop essential skills among youth and families, enabling them to reach their full potential as valued community members.

CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT

Healing from the Core

To ensure a long lasting impact, we make sure to start at the core. Once the self-esteem and motivation to work on problems is increased, we can strengthen core beliefs, hopes and dreams for a successful transition and aftercare.

"Have a better relationships within family"

Have a better life and more control over it. Spend more time on the land. Practice more traditional ways. Have stronger, better relationships within your family. The family program here at the Charles J. Andrew Treatment Centre is significantly better than other treatment centres I attended.

"Everyone Really Connected"

In the country it was better. They showed us how to be spiritual. Sometimes we went fishing. At night we played games. We talked, bonded, laughed. Everyone connected. The staff would take us for good long walks. There’s always friendliness in the country.

"We shed a lot of tears at Nutshimit"

During the clinical week, we focus on the brain through counseling and psychoeducation. In the land-based week, we work on healing the heart through cultural practices. At Nutshimit, emotions run deep, and many tears are shed along the healing journey.
