Indian Boarding Homes Class Action Settlement PDF Banner

What is the Indian Boarding Homes Class Action?

In the 1950s, the Indian Boarding Homes Program placed First Nations and Inuit children in private homes for the purpose of attending school. This Settlement provides compensation to people placed in these homes. You are a Primary Class Member if Canada placed you in a private home, between September 1, 1951 and June 30, 1992. You may still be eligible if you were placed after June 30, 1992. People who were placed in private homes, but died on or after July 24, 2016, may also be eligible, and their estate can apply on their behalf.

How can I know if I am eligible?

Proposed New Law Governing Ratification Votes

TO ALL MEMBERS

Proposed New Law Governing Ratification Votes

As most of you will be aware, HIFN’s Membership Code Working Group has developed a new “restated” membership code intended to replace our existing 1987 Code. The Restated Code will complete the process of taking sovereignty over membership, get rid of the old code’s reliance on the Indian Act and give effect to with our own beliefs about who belongs on our membership list.
