Welcome
Welcome to the Aboriginal Justice Inquiry – Child Welfare
Initiative (AJI-CWI) Web Site.
The AJI-CWI represented a joint initiative among four parties:
- The Province of Manitoba;
- The Manitoba Metis Federation;
- The Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs; and
- The Manitoba Keewatinook Ininew Okimowin.
The purpose of the joint initiative was to work together through a
common process to develop and subsequently oversee the implementation
of a plan to restructure the child welfare system in Manitoba. An
essential feature of this restructuring was the expansion of off-reserve
authority for First Nations and the establishment of a province-wide
Metis mandate.
The pages on this site contain
archival
information on AJI-CWI.
In the spirit of partnership, this site was jointly managed by the
four parties to the AJI=CWI/.
