Native Child Welfare Services Reviewed


Ontario's Children and Youth Services Minister is committing to working with native child welfare agencies in improving services.

Laurel Broten spoke recently at a provincial conference in Fort Frances.

Broten says with the hiring of John Beaucage as a advisor, they'll be talking further about making the system better.

"John and I, along with chiefs and other experts, will be working together to bring leaders and experts and technicians to a summit which we will hold in the spring," says Broten.

Broten says it's an opportunity to work together to ensure that children and their families are well cared for.
