Technologies of potential change: Tracking the impact of Saskatchewan's Child Welfare Reform using theoretical and applied ethics

FY 2010-11

Summary
This project examines the impact of child welfare policies and practices (CW) on the health and wellbeing of children and youth taken into care, and their families. We are also interested in determining the role that ethical guidelines could play in assisting CW to be more responsive and accountable to its clients, the front-line and community agencies that serve them, and to the people of Saskatchewan and Canada, more generally. While our project is not limited to the experience of Indigenous peoples, we are interested in determining the specific ways that CW impacts upon the health and wellbeing of Indigenous child, youth and families.
