As educators and parents, we have all had experiences with children’s behaviour that have challenged our patience and skills. Regardless of the reasons, some children in our programs require extra attention from staff to manage in a group setting. How many of us have felt overwhelmed and frustrated because we have one or two children in our group whose behaviour stands out from the others? We hope that this chapter of Piaranut supports what you are already doing to help children with challenging behaviour, as well as give you new ideas and strategies to try.

If you are not going to have your baby at home, it is a good idea to pack a bag to take with you. Pack the bag well in advance of your expected due date. Some things you will need include a housecoat, loose nightgown, a nursing bra, slippers, several pairs of underwear, comb or brush, make-up, clothes to wear home, clothes, diapers and a blanket for the baby. Make sure you have phone numbers of people you will want to get a hold of—friends, relatives, midwives, health care provider etc.

Stay informed – make responsible choices was a project designed to empower youth to make healthy, responsible choices about sexual health. During this project, Pauktuutit and the Centre of Excellence for Youth Engagement partnered with the National Inuit Youth Council (NIYC), Nunavik Regional Health and Social Services Board (NRHSSB) and the Canadian Inuit HIV / AIDS Network (CIHAN) to use their extensive networks to facilitate and coordinate an Inuit specific youth sexual health conference. Inuit youth representatives had access to the expertise and knowledge of health professionals, community front line workers and researchers to support their participation in the Inuit Youth Sexual Health Conference held on February 17 – 19, 2008, in Kuujjuaq, Nunavik, Northern Quebec This conference was a direct result of requests and suggestions from the Pan- Arctic Sexual Health Symposium in Inuvik February 2008 where there was a one day workshop for Inuit youth.

Pauktuutit is pleased to release, to Indian and Northern Affairs Canada and to other relevant Government of Canada Departments, Keepers of the Light. The work was funded by INAC, to inform arrangements between the Inuit women of Canada and the Government of Canada, regarding programs and services developed with and on behalf of Inuit women and their families, living in northern and southern communities.

Keepers of the Light outlines Pauktuutit vision for a strengthened partnership between Canadian Inuit women and the Government of Canada. It stands on its own as the substantive and comprehensive perspective of the autonomous national voice of Inuit women.

In addition, Keepers of the Light is drafted as one of three components of an INAC funded Inuit Action Plan. We understand that the other two are being prepared by Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami and the Inuit Circumpolar Conference (Canada). We look forward to receiving these ITK and ICC contributions to the plan and to collaborating closely as together with colleagues in the Government of Canada we engage in the implementation phase of the important measures contained in all three components.

In the meantime, the matters raised in Keepers of the Light are urgent and have daily consequences in the lives of the women we serve and their families. We sincerely hope for an early, serious and positive consideration of and response to this document.

Traditional childbirth practices were intrinsic to the Inuit way of life and crucial to maintaining the social fabric of Inuit communities.
