Help The Attawapiskat First Nation

Are we forgetting our neighbors?

The Attawapiskat First Nations declared a state of emergency on October 28, 2011, because of major health and safety concerns for the Aboriginal people of the community, mostly due to poor housing, lack of clean water, low or no heat to bear the cold, and other hygienic needs.

One of the major crises is the housing issue: several generations of families are being forced to live under one roof. The residents live in tents, dilapidated huts, temporary shelters and a few trailers---with many homes without running water or electricity. The lack of clean running water causes adults and children to be covered in rashes, while human waste is forced to be dumped into nearby ditches.
