About this app
The Virtual Aboriginal Wellness App is safe, supportive, and culturally grounded mobile app designed by NADACA (Native Alcohol and Drug Abuse Counselling Association of Nova Scotia). This app helps Indigenous community members access the Virtual Aboriginal Wellness Program (VAWP) — a guided healing journey that blends Mi’kmaw cultural teachings with clinical wellness practices.
Many individuals face barriers to accessing support including distance, stigma, or busy schedules. The Virtual Aboriginal Wellness App helps remove those barriers by providing a private, accessible way to participate in a structured four-week program on your own terms.
- Confidential & Safe – Personal data is protected under strict confidentiality rules, and participation remains anonymous, so your journey stays your own.
- Daily Teachings – Receive a new session each day that combines Mi’kmaw cultural traditions, stories, and wellness practices.
- Weekly Reflections – Share your thoughts and insights in private reflections that help deepen your healing journey.
- Counsellor Check-Ins – Stay connected with support staff through guided check-ins and program feedback.
- Culturally Grounded – Access sessions created by Mi’kmaw Elders, knowledge keepers, and counsellors.
Some of the program highlights include:
- Designed with Two-Eyed Seeing: integrating Indigenous teachings with Western wellness practices.
- Supports healing on all levels: mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual.
- Content includes cultural teachings, traditional medicine, storytelling, recovery strategies, and personal wellness tools.
- Flexible: participate anytime, from anywhere.
To begin your journey, the registration process is straight forward:
- Download the app and create a secure account.
- Complete onboarding with a NADACA counsellor.
- Receive a daily session (video, story, or reflection activity).
- Complete weekly reflections to track your progress and share insights.
- Stay connected with counsellors who review reflections and offer support.
