Interprovincial Agreement Child Welfare

The term “child” is defined as a person who is actually or apparently under the age of majority (19 years of age in New Brunswick) (and includes an unborn or stillborn child). There is no definition of “youth.” The law provides for protective services for neglected or abused adults and provides that a child in care who reaches adulthood, is mentally incompetent and does not have an adult who could assume responsibility for caring for the child, may be treated by the court as a neglected adult. The Act allows the Minister to continue to provide care and support to a child who has been in care under a guardianship order and who is of legal age. Eligibility for ongoing care and support is set out in the Child Care Program Standards of Practice. Among the best interests are “the benefits of housing that respects the family, cultural, social and religious heritage of the child”. There are 17 First Nations child welfare agencies in Saskatchewan. This analysis looked for provincial or territorial legislative or regulatory changes, policy changes and changes in key practices that could impact the investigation (assessment), the rationale for the five types of maltreatment, and the risk of future child abuse since 2012. If a person has information that reasonably leads him or her to believe that a child is or may be vulnerable, he or she must immediately report that information to an authority or to a parent or guardian of the child. Below, we summarize some important U.S. federal laws that affect foster and foster children. For more information, visit the Child Welfare Information Portal.

A person who has reason to believe that a child is in need of protection must immediately report the matter to a director or a person designated by a director. This report can be used as a reference tool to provide context for researchers and policy makers interpreting child protection data. There are no Delegated First Nations organizations in the province. Inuit communities in Northern Labrador, Nunatsiavut, are self-reliant, but have not yet implemented their own laws or child welfare systems. It is essential that any evidence suggesting that a child has not been abused be considered as thoroughly as any evidence suggesting that a child has been abused. The B.C Handbook for Action on Child Abuse and Neglect (PDF: 541 KB; 68 pages) is a guide for service providers working with children and families, including child care workers, police, doctors and teachers. It sets out the reporting obligations and the facilitation of investigations and explains the legal basis for the exchange of information for each type of service provider. If a person aged 16 or 17 requires care and supervision and no one is willing to assume their responsibilities, or if they cannot be restored with their family, they may enter into an agreement with the Director regarding housing services and/or financial support. Persons who have entered into agreements with the Director under this provision may also be subject to protection orders prohibiting contact between a person named in the order and the 16- or 17-year-old. Any person who has information that gives rise to suspicion that a child has been abandoned, abandoned, physically or emotionally neglected, a victim of physical or sexual abuse, including sexual exploitation through child pornography or other abuse, must immediately inform the Minister of Family and Children of the situation. The Office of the Auditor General of Canada conducted an audit of Child and Family Services, which was submitted to the Legislative Assembly in March 2014.

The objective of the audit was to determine whether the Ministry of Health and Social Affairs and the health authorities are adequately fulfilling their key legislative obligations relating to child and family services in order to ensure the protection and well-being of children and their families. The report highlights that the Ministry and health authorities are not adequately carrying out their main tasks related to the protection of children. These included the lack of an adequate framework for accountability, non-compliance with requirements for child safety reviews, and requirements for initial screening and annual nursing home reviews. The report contained 11 recommendations to improve the child and family services system. Table 12 indicates whether there is an independent lawyer, representative or ombudsman for children in the provinces and territories. Where a person, including a person performing professional or official functions in relation to children, has reasonable suspicion [one of the grounds for determining that a child is vulnerable], he or she shall immediately report to a society the suspicion and the information on which it is based. The obligation is permanent (so that subsequent incidents or information lead to a new reporting obligation) and the obligation cannot be delegated to another person. The obligation is not mandatory for children aged 16 or 17, but for these children, reports can be prepared. The term “child” is defined as a person under the age of 16 or, unless proven otherwise, who appears to be under the age of 16. The term “youth” is defined as a person over the age of 16 who is not yet of legal age (19 in the Northwest Territories). There is a separate procedure for applying for and obtaining youth protection orders under the Act; An application for protection may be made for minors if the worker “has reason to believe that the adolescent cannot reside with his parents and that he is unable to support himself and to protect himself and that he is unwilling or unable to enter into a voluntary agreement on services due to incapacity for work, or otherwise meets the criteria for a vulnerable child.

The Director may make arrangements with youth on a voluntary basis to provide services that assist youth with self-sufficiency, including foster families. These agreements expire when the young person is of legal age, but services may be extended until the age of 23 for young people who were in the permanent custody of the director before reaching the age of majority. Reporting of Child Protection and Child Abuse: Handbook and Protocols for Manitoba Service Providers (2013) (PDF: 713 KB; 156 pages) is published by the Manitoba provincial government as a guide for service providers. It contains the full text of child abuse reporting protocols for caregivers and youth, prison staff, early childhood educators, nurses, doctors and other health professionals, school staff and social workers. There are two First Nations agencies that provide child welfare services through a protocol with the ministry. There are no delegated bodies. In 2014, amendments were made to Saskatchewan`s Child Maltreatment Protocol to improve the province`s coordinated and integrated approach to child maltreatment investigations while clarifying child protection responsibilities […]
