Inuit Child Welfare Review

The Office of the Child and Youth Advocate (OCYA) is conducting an Inuit Child Welfare Review in Nunatsiavut.

We are making our second round of visits to communities in Nunatsiavut as well as Goose-Bay and North West River.

Please note, the OCYA, Darlene Jacque and Danielle Baikie will also be in the communities during the dates below:

  • September 23-28 – North West River/Goose Bay
  • October 3-5 – Makkovik
  • October 8-12 – Hopedale
  • October 15-19 – Nain
  • October 22-24 – Rigolet
  • October 24-26 – Postville

They strongly encourage youth to attend their sessions, and to provide us with their input, especially if they have been impacted by the child protection system in any way.

We want to hear from everyone who is willing to share.

Please contact community liaisons Darlene Jacque at 896-4431 or Danielle Baikie at 922-2126 for more information, or you can reach the Office of the Child and Youth Advocate toll free at 1-877-753-3888.
