Canadian Child Welfare Research Portal: Jordan's Principle"The Canadian Child Welfare Research Portal (CWRP) provides access to up-to-date research on Canadian child welfare programs and policies. The Portal is a partnership supported by the McGill Centre for Research on Children and Families (CRCF), the Factor-Inwentash Faculty of Social Work at the University of Toronto, the Faculty of Social Work at the University of Calgary, PART (Practice and Research Together) and PolicyWise for Children and Families."
"Jordan's Principle is a child-first principle intended to ensure that First Nations children do not experience, delay, denial, or disruption of services that are normally available to all other children. A Members Motion (M-296) endorsing the adoption of Jordan's Principle was unanimously passed in the House of Commons in 2007. One area in which Jordan's Principle applies is in the area of child welfare services.
This page provides information related to the formulation of, background to, and governmental responses to Jordan's Principle."
