Published purpose

The project will provide the services of a Victims Rights Advocate to assist families attending Court and Circle processes, especially families dealing with the Child Protection System. The Victims Rights Advocate will work with Victim Services, the Giiwedin Anang Council (an Indigenous Family Dispute Resolution Program) and a Legal Clinic Child Protection Lawyer to support victims through the Giiwedin Anang Council and Talking Circle process either through the child welfare or the civil stream. A dedicated Victims Rights Advocate will increase access to justice and a sense of community for Indigenous victims and survivors of crime.
