Abstract

"Developed by the Prairie Child Welfare Consortium, Walking Together brings together accomplished Indigenous and non-Indigenous scholars, forwarding critical research about a range of contemporary child welfare issues currently impacting Indigenous children in Canada. Issues discussed in the book include policies around Bill C-92 and Jordan's Principle; the role of advocacy in social work practice; and the important work of allyship in relationships with Indigenous Peoples in education.

Books in the Voices from the Prairies series help to strengthen the child welfare community in Canada by expanding its body of knowledge, as well as fostering renewed investment in resources for healthy children and families. Walking Together: The Future of Child Indigenous Welfare on the Prairies is the seventh book in the series."--Back cover.
