A troubled Innu community in northern Labrador is still at risk for many social problems despite an influx of $350 million (Canadian) over the past decade, CBC News reports.

The federal government spent about $280 million to relocate the entire community. But problems that plagued the people still exist and, in some cases, have gotten worse. For example, alcoholism rates, suicides and child abuse have grown since the move two years ago.

There has also been an increase in teen pregnancy and substance abuse. Government reports have shown problems with the education system and treatment programs for youth.
