Band Representative Initiatives

 The Social Services department is currently moving forward on several key initiatives involving the Band Representative position. We have enclosed all the information in this package and the list below outlines what each initiative requires

 

Band Representative Central Listing

In our efforts to ensure consistent notification by Children’s Aid Societies to Anishinabek Nation Band Representatives when required by legislation, the Social Development department at the Union of Ontario Indians is building a central database.  This database will be made available to Child Welfare agencies when they come into contact with Anishinabek children through a central listing posted on the Social Services pages of the website. Another reason to create this central database is to ensure that new information about the Band Representative system becomes quickly distributed when it becomes available.
 

 Education

 Our last initiative is still in development and is not complete, but we hope in partnership with the Anishinabek Educational Institute to offer a Child Welfare Advocate Graduate Certificate. This program will cover job specific training such as the history of Child Welfare in Ontario, First Nations family systems and legal processes in Family Court. Please stay updated by visiting our website or Facebook for updates (Anishinabek Nation Social Services)
