Funded by the Public Health Agency of Canada and led by Jacinthe Dion, the project involves implementing and evaluating the Kaskinomatasowin program, a sexual abuse prevention and healthy relationship promotion program for children and youth.

The project, an extension of the Lanterne Awacic prevention program, is tailored to the needs of the Atikamekw and respectful of their culture. The program is targeting over 200 parents from 3 Atikamekw Indigenous communities in Quebec and aims to increase their skills and prevent sexual violence against children.

The objective is to increase knowledge about the Kaskinomatasowin program, which speaks directly to parents using a trauma and violence-sensitive approach and aims to prevent sexual violence and its consequences on health.
