of Work

the links at the bottom of this page for a detail accounting
of the seven Working Groups' Statements of Work
The Specific Statement of Work includes:
- Develop a model for the provision of integrated
intake and assessment services including a proposal for shared
governance. The specific model may vary depending on the
nature of the community within which the service will be offered.
- Describe the working relationship between the
first response system, (i.e. intake and assessment) and
other services provided by the mandated agencies.
- Identify existing community-based collateral
service providers that can deliver prevention, early intervention
and support services in collaboration with the Child and Family
Services System.
- Propose a protocol or service agreement arrangement
that may be used with collateral service providers to formalize
their relationship (i.e. stipulation of their role and expected
outcomes) with the Child and Family Services system.
- Develop a system for centralized administration
of residential care resources so that availability is based on
the prioritized needs of children in care.
- Develop specific proposals for innovative
prevention and early intervention
programs that build on the unique strengths of local communities.
These proposals should emphasize:
- a "holistic" approach
to service provision;
- intersectoral integration strategies and
protocol development;
- collateral providers and programs;
- cultural aspects of service provision
- integration of prevention and protection
approaches;
- urban/rural strategies;
- placement resource protocols;
- choice pre- and post-intake, and
- consistency of fees and payments.
- Propose service alternatives to substitute care
based on the principles of family empowerment, strengthening the
capacity of families and non-adversarial intervention options
(e.g. – family group conferencing, family justice approaches).
- Identify children and families currently being
served, whose case will be transferred to one of the newly created
mandated agencies including all the elements associated with that
transfer.
- Develop a protocol or service agreement to be
used when one mandated agency will provide a service at the request
of another mandated agency.
- Strategy to create and sustain off-reserve governance
role in service delivery.
- Submit recommendations to the Financial Working
Group on funding options for the recommendations and proposals
forthcoming in this Working Group’s Report.
