Sent on behalf of the Office of the Representative of Children and Youth.
The Representative for Children and Youth (RCY) is conducting a three-year research project directly aimed at evaluating Care Plans created for Indigenous and non-Indigenous children and youth under the guardianship of MCFD with a focus on permanency planning, cultural planning, and transition planning. The overall objective of the project is to identify systemic gaps and strengths of the system as means of improving the efficacy of care planning for children and youth in the care of MCFD. This multi-year project will engage main stakeholders involved in developing care plans, including MCFD leadership, Social Workers who provide guardianship services (or have in the past), Caregivers and Children and Youth.
If you think that it would be beneficial for someone to complete this survey, please forward them this email.
BCFFPA President, Marcy Perron, and Executive Director, Jayne Wilson, has provided support for this project:
“BCFFPA supports the qualitative review of care planning currently being conducted by the Representative for Children and Youth. RCY describes this review as a systemic evaluation of care planning, including both systemic strengths and challenges, that will not evaluate or identify the work of individual Foster Parent Caregivers. Participation in the questionnaire and interviews is voluntary and RCY has indicated that all data gathered will be kept anonymous and confidential. MCFD leadership also supports participation of MCFD staff in these activities.”
If you wish to participate further in an interview with the research team, please contact us by replying to this email, or any members of the Care Plan Review team listed below.
All information will be held in strict confidence.
If you have any technical difficulties please contact the RCY Care Review Team below, they are happy to help!
