CTI Canadian Training Institute and West Flats Citizens Group has received funding from the Department of Justice Canada: Youth Justice Fund to Create an Aboriginal Breaking The Cycle Curriculum and a Partners Council in Addressing Youth Gang Violence in First Nations and Metis Communitites in Saskatchewan. This project builds upon the experience of the CTI Canadian Training Institute’s Breaking the Cycle: Youth Ambassador Leadership Program located in Toronto within the Rexdale and Scarborough communities.

Mission Statement
Youth from the current Breaking the Cyle Program in Toronto presents to Aboriginal youth in Saskatchewan
Our Funder
Objectives of the Project:
To create a Partners Council to oversee the delivery of the Breaking the Cycle Program including Ambassador Outreach to the remote communities
To create an Aboriginal Curriculum and Process in rolling CTI’s 28 week Breaking the Cycle program from a truly Aboriginal perspective
To create Protocols for working within remote communities on reducing gang violence and gang membership including protocols for the operation of the Partners Council
Why this Project is needed?
Many reasons - the aboriginal gang problem is growing issue in remote communities of Saskatchewan. Youth who are entrenched in gang membership need training similar to the Breaking the Cycle program but from an Aboriginal Framework. By creating the will and support along with the curriculum to deliver an Aboriginal Breaking the Cycle Youth Ambassador Leadership program we will provide the momentum and mechanism to secure funding to pilot this program. We will also involve multiple partnerships to actually begin coordinating efforts to address gang membership and gang violence.
