Sanctum Care Group

Directions Website

Sanctum Care Group Sanctum is a newly-formed not-for-profit charitable organization that opened Saskatchewan’s first HIV Transitional Care Home and Hospice on November 3, 2015.

Sanctum’s mission is to provide care to people living with HIV/AIDS that is dignified, non-judgmental and unconditional. Saskatchewan has the highest rates of HIV in Canada, with the rate of HIV in our First Nations people equaling the rate of HIV in Nigeria. Reasons for Saskatchewan’s high rate of HIV are often related to the intersection of social, psychosocial and environmental factors such as homelessness, addiction, poverty, mental illness and the sustained effects of colonization. Research indicates that 75% of people living with HIV who are homeless without support will die within 5 years. Sanctum is attempting to bridge the gaps in the current system by providing end-of-life care, transitional care, and respite care through a 10-bed facility that offers specialized supports and services geared to this population’s unique set of needs.

People who come to SCG face severe barriers to social and health services. For some, the trauma they have faced makes it difficult for them to engage in ways society expects, making it hard for them to receive traditional health and social care.

SCG meets people where they are at. We take the time to understand peoples' pain and past experiences to help them shape their own vision of the health and social outcomes they want to achieve for their own life.

If you answered "C" you're correct.

Indigenous children make up more than half of all children in foster care nationwide, they are about 14 times more likely to be placed in foster care than non-Indigenous children. This creates a cycle of cultural loss, severe trauma, and ongoing cycles of family separation.

SCG breaks this cycle by giving mothers at high risk of child apprehension the care and support they need to achieve their family goals. Over the last 6 years, SCG has worked with mothers who were at high risk of apprehension to keep over 750 children out of the foster care system.

If you answered "D" you're correct.

Research consistently shows that children and youth in foster care face greater physical and mental health challenges, resulting in significantly elevated rates of emergency department visits and hospitalizations.

In 6 years, Sanctum 1.5, PORT and the strength of loving mothers, have prevented over 750 children from entering the foster care system.

Today, we remember the children who were taken from their families, the Survivors who carry their experiences, and the families and communities who continue to live with the impacts of residential schools.

We also recognize the work that has been done toward reconciliation and the work that remains.

The Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s call to Action 1 calls the government to reduce the number of Aboriginal children in care by.

Call to Action 18 asks governments to acknowledge that the current state of Indigenous health is connected to the policies of Canada’s past, including residential schools.

Call to Action 19 calls for measurable action to close the gaps in health outcomes between Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities—including in mental health, addictions, chronic disease, life expectancy and access to appropriate health services.

Truth means acknowledging what happened.
Reconciliation means acting on what we have learned.

At Sanctum Care Group, we believe that health and social care must meet people where they are—with dignity, compassion, cultural safety, without judgment and by doing everything we can to keep families together.

Today, we listen. We learn. We remember. And we recommit to doing the work.

🧡 Every Child Matters.
