About Native Community Worker in St. Clair College
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
This program emphasizes traditional healing methods and provides students with the unique opportunity to develop self-awareness and the mental and spiritual healing so often needed by care givers. An appreciation for native culture and the uniqueness of being a native person are combined with studies to develop specific knowledge and skills in the use of traditional healing methods in the counselling of Native people.
The program utilizes existing courses of study within the General Arts and Science program, as well as some which have been especially tailored for Aboriginal student's learning styles and need to explore their heritage. A special feature of the program is the College's support system for Native students, which includes the Aboriginal counselor.
EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES
Graduates are well prepared for positions in mental health services and social services, or as community health representatives, in native community settings, on or off reserves.
