Carrier Sekani Family Services welcomes the much-needed funding
Carrier Sekani Family Services is applauding a commitment from Ottawa to provide $47.8 billion in funding for long-term reform of First Nations child and family services.
Carrier Sekani Family Services states its share of the proposed funding "will significantly alleviate roadblocks in providing services to the Nations we serve, and is a significant step forward in reconciliation and providing justice for First Nations children and families." “Our top priority at CSFS is to ensure that First Nations children have a safe place to grow and thrive, which has been difficult without adequate funding,” says Warner Adam, chief executive officer of CSFS. “In order to thrive, children need to grow up rooted in their culture.
A Special Chiefs Assembly will then be held in September for deliberations on reforms of the First Nations Child and Family Services Program and to vote on the proposed measures.
