The passage of Bill C – 92, An Act Respecting First Nations, Inuit and Métis Children, Youth and Families’, marks a critical turn in Indigenous child welfare. Coming into force on January 1, 2020, this new legislation prioritizes Indigenous law, confers jurisdiction over child and family services to Indigenous Peoples, and outlines guiding principles for delivering child and family services.
