Recently, native spirituality programs, led by native elders, and assisted by Liaison Officers, have been established in Western Canada's federal and some provincial penal institutions. The way of life in the institutions, the impact of the programs, and depiction of the program, workshops and ceremonies give an introduction to the facts of life faced by native inmates.
