ENRICH

ENRICH is a group of investigators, students and staff that came together in 2013 under a research program funded for six years by Alberta Innovates – Health Solutions (AIHS). One of ENRICH’s objectives was to gain an in-depth understanding of how to better support pregnant women in a large Cree First Nations community with the ultimate goal of improving pregnancy-related health by identifying new and innovative strategies. These strategies were designed with the intention of addressing the unique needs that these women and communities face due to cultural destruction, historical trauma, socio-economic inequalities, and other related factors.
