Amendments to the Child, Family and Community Service Act
Indigenous children, like all children, deserve to grow up in safe, loving homes, connected to their community and culture. Amendments to the Child, Family and Community Service Act will reduce the over-representation of Indigenous children in the child-welfare system by working with Indigenous communities as we move towards meaningful and lasting Reconciliation. The changes to the Act are one of many ways we are listening to, and working with, the Indigenous communities to reform the child-welfare system.
