The Navigator Project

The Navigator Project helps families and service providers collaboratively address child welfare matters. Collaborative Decision-Making processes are out-of-court processes that encourage families to share their voices in decision-making. These processes include Child Protection Mediation, Family Group Conferences, Family Case Planning Conferences, Traditional Decision-Making Processes, and Youth Transition Conferences. See here for more information on Collaborative Decision-Making Processes. 

What does the Navigator do?

The Navigator works directly with Indigenous and racialized families, discussing options and connecting them with Collaborative Decision-Making processes.

The Navigator also helps educate service providers about Collaborative Decision-Making processes and empower them to further support their clients. Workshops and resources are available to assist service providers in guiding their clients towards the most effective option for their unique situation.

Navigator services are free to families involved in child protection matters with the Ministry of Child and Family Development or an Indigenous Child and Family Service Agency. Services are available virtually/over the phone to anyone in British Columbia.
