There are some differences in the process for Indigenous children and families. For example, the child protection worker must take steps to protect the child's Indigenous identity and family ties, and a representative of the child’s Indigenous community will become involved. This process is evolving as the BC government has recognized the rights of Indigenous communities to make laws and provide their own child and family services. | There are some differences in the process for Indigenous children and families.
