A space to reclaim knowledge, share stories, and learn about our bodies—together.

Welcome to MOON Lodge. We are an online learning community dedicated to improving access to reproductive health education and support for families across the Northwest Territories. Our goal is to provide reliable reproductive health education and resources that reflects the unique needs of northern communities, while uplifting Indigenous knowledge, teachings, and community wisdom.

A living hub for knowledge, connection, and community-guided growth

Our online learning space is a collection of readings, videos, and downloadable materials developed with guidance from voices of our northern communities. From menstruation to family planning, from birth to loss, we offer support for every stage of reproductive life—so families can find guidance and connection wherever they are on their journey.

When we reclaim knowledge, we reclaim power—one story, one family, one community at a time.
