The Wellness Rooms: the week's log
The Health and Wellness Centre keeps a full week, every week, from before a child is born to the Elders' Friday gathering. Nine core programs run all year round, based on Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit and Inuuqatigiittiarniq. This is the log, kept the way the Centre publishes it: name, days, hours, place.
The counselling room
Counselling Services is recognised across Nunavut and by the federal government as making an important contribution to responding to trauma and addressing the high rate of suicide in Nunavut. Services include counselling, training of counsellors and crisis response.
Counselling is offered in person in Clyde River at the Ilisaqsivik resource centre, and remote counselling for other communities in the Qikiqtani region by phone. To reach a counsellor Monday to Friday, 9am to 12pm and 1pm to 5pm, call 1-867-924-6565.
