Our Impact

What we do in numbers -

View the full report

Adsum for Women and Children, our housing, programs, and services are located and provided in Mi'kmaw Territory. We strive for meaningful partnerships with all the peoples of this land as we continue to live and learn in Kjipuktuk (Halifax). Through the Peace and Friendship Treaties, which the Mi’kmaq, Wolastoqiyik, and Passamaquoddy Peoples first signed with the British Crown in 1725-1726, there was no surrender of lands nor resources. When Mi'kmaq agreed to the Peace and Friendship Treaties with the British, they were extending an offer to live in Mi'kma'ki as part of msit no'kmaq (all my relations). Through this invitation to a Treaty relationship, they sought to live in peace and friendship. Agreements within these Treaties outline a path for the ongoing relationship between Nations in mutual respect.
