Indigenous communities across\u00a0Canada have always had\u00a0midwives.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Indigenous midwives were once a cornerstone of every Indigenous community. It has only been in the last hundred years that this practice has been taken away from our communities. Indigenous midwives were silenced and ordered to stop their important work. The silencing of Indigenous midwifery occurs as a result of colonization and the ongoing medicalization and systemic racism in the Canadian health care system.<\/h4>\n

Since 2002, Indigenous midwives from across Canada have come together almost every year, usually in association with the Canadian Association of Midwives (CAM)<\/a>\u2019s annual conference, to share and plan for the future of Indigenous midwifery in our communities.<\/p>\n

Recognizing the need to establish a collective voice as Indigenous women working in our communities, NCIM was officially established on November 11, 2008 at the third annual Gathering in Quebec City. This was a critical step in the restoration and renewal of midwifery in Indigenous communities across Canada.<\/p>\n

Today, NCIM membership consists of approximately 120 Indigenous midwives, midwife Elders, and student midwives. In 2017, 25% of all new midwifery students at Ryerson University<\/a> in Ontario identified as\u00a0Indigenous.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=\u00a0\u00bb1\/2″][vc_single_image image=\u00a0\u00bb26842″ img_size=\u00a0\u00bbfull\u00a0\u00bb alignment=\u00a0\u00bbcenter\u00a0\u00bb][vc_column_text css=\u00a0\u00bb.vc_custom_1680193545116{margin-top: -37px !important;margin-bottom: 30px !important;padding-top: 30px !important;padding-right: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;padding-left: 30px !important;background-color: #2c1648 !important;border-radius: 10px !important;}\u00a0\u00bb]<\/p>\n

STRATEGIC PLAN<\/span><\/h3>\n
In April 2017, NCIM adopted a three\u2011year Strategic Plan focusing on five strategic directions.<\/span><\/h5>\n
1. Maintaining and promoting Indigenous knowledges and practices regarding maternal and\u00a0infant\u00a0health<\/span><\/h5>\n
2. Expanding Indigenous midwifery in\u00a0Canada<\/span><\/h5>\n
3. Advancing Indigenous midwifery as a valued\u00a0profession<\/span><\/h5>\n
4. Promoting Indigenous midwifery\u00a0globally<\/span><\/h5>\n
5. Building NCIM\u2019s strength and sustainability as\u00a0a\u00a0Council<\/span><\/h5>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

NCIM members include both Registered Midwives who identify as Indigenous and Aboriginal Midwives practicing under certain exemption clauses of provincial health legislation.<\/span><\/h5>\n
