L’Institut Tshakapesh, qui se situe à Uashat, est un organisme culturel et éducatif qui dessert, depuis près de trente-cinq ans, huit communautés innues de la Côte-Nord. L’Institut a pour mission de préserver la langue et la culture innus et oeuvre à favoriser la réussite scolaire des jeunes des communautés membres. Pour se faire, l’Institut Tshakapesh propose des activités d’échange et de perfectionnement en impliquant les parents dans l’éducation de leurs enfants. L’Institut valorise également « [l]e maintien des traditions, la fierté culturelle, le respect d’autrui et l’entraide », des valeurs devant être transmises aux générations futures (Institut Tshakapesh, 2013).
Dans le cadre d’une mesure du gouvernement du Québec, l’Institut Tshakapesh a mis en place le programme INNURACONTE s’adressant aux jeunes de 0 à 9 ans et à leur famille. Le programme INNURACONTE prend la forme d’activités mensuelles ou bimensuelles. Au cours des activités d’INNURACONTE, des aînés des communautés racontent leur histoire aux jeunes et leur famille. Cela est suivi par la lecture d’un livre choisi par l’Institut Tshakapesh et portant sur une thématique particulière. Ce programme valorise le développement de l’alphabétisation chez les jeunes, mais également le développement des habiletés parentales.
