MNO Citizens, we want to hear from you!
MNO Métis Child, Youth & Family Services Project
Introductory Town Halls:
January 18 and 19, 2022 at 6:30 PM (ET)
The Métis Nation of Ontario is happy to announce that Series 2 of Phase II – the Design Phase of engagement, for the Métis Child, Youth & Family Services Project will commence virtually in mid-January with an introductory Town Hall on January 18th and 19th at 6:30 pm (citizens are encouraged to attend one of the two Town Halls). The Town Hall will include a project overview and an introduction about the upcoming Design Phase.
To RSVP, please email Alisha Kaba at alishak@metisnation.org or call 647 390-0140.
*The content is the same as the Town Hall and sessions (Series 1) that were held from October – December 2021, so if you did NOT attend those, please do attend this time.
In the Design Phase, citizens will be encouraged to engage and discuss the types of programs, supports and / or services they feel are necessary to prevent interactions with the child welfare system and keep Métis families together. This is also an opportunity for citizens to identify how they want to see Métis child, youth and family services delivered and to identify ways to improve current processes for those who are or do become involved with the child welfare system
A project report with a summary about the Phase I Visioning Phase engagement sessions that were held in February and March 2021 can be accessed here.
