Abstract

Manitoba is home to approximately 1,500 Inuit, and sees 16,000 consults yearly from the Kivalliq region of Nunavut to access services. The purpose of our study was to develop detailed profiles of Inuit accessing services in Manitoba, by using administrative data routinely collected by Manitoban agencies, to support the development of Inuit-centric services. This study was conducted in partnership with the Manitoba Inuit Association, and Inuit Elders from Nunavut and Manitoba. Findings shows that the Inuit community living in Manitoba is fairly stable, with only approximately 5 percent of Inuit moving in and out of Manitoba on any given year. Inuit settle primarily in Winnipeg, and a significant proportion depend on social programs such as Income Assistance and housing support. A significant number of Inuit children have contact with the Child Welfare System. Our results support the need for more Inuit-centric programming, including family support and language programs.

Abstract

Despite decades of Inuit accessing services in Manitoba, Inuit-centric services remain scant and have only begun to emerge. This article reports on Inuit utilisation of mental health services in Manitoba. In this study, we focused on two interrelated cohorts: Inuit living in Manitoba and Inuit from the Kivalliq region who come to Winnipeg to access specialised services. We used administrative data routinely collected by Manitoban agencies. The study was conducted in partnership with the Manitoba Inuit Association, and Inuit Elders from Nunavut and Manitoba. Our results show that mental health-related consults represent between 1 in 5 and 1 in 3 of all consults made by Inuit in Manitoba. Rates of hospitalisation for mental health conditions are considerably lower than those of residents from the Manitoba northern health authority. Given that Nunavut has the highest rate of suicide in the world, our results suggest underserved needs rather than lower needs. Kivalliq and Manitoba Inuit utilise mental health services in Manitoba extensively, yet these services for the most part remain western-centric. Epistemological accommodations in the provision of mental health services have yet to be implemented. This is now the focus of our work.
