Description
"This study reports on how Survivors have been impacted by the common experience payment (CEP), a component of the 2007 Indian Residential Schools Settlement Agreement. This is a qualitative research study with two main objectives: 1) to gather experiential data and to elicit CEP recipients’ explanations about the impact of the CEP on Survivors and their engagement in healing; and, 2) to gather insights regarding the roles of support services in assisting them during the compensation process" (The Indian Residential Schools Settlement Agreement's Common Experience Payment and Healing; A Qualitative Study Exploring Impacts on Recipients, xiii).
