Protective Services for Children

Saskatoon Tribal Council (STC) Well-Being Services works collaboratively with member communities to provide positive outcomes for children and families through the Progressive Model. The Progressive Model funding assists communities in enhancing their prevention and family support services that keep families intact and thriving within their circle of support and cultural connections. The goal is to move towards implementing and delivering their child welfare model.

Well-Being Services provides two collaborative pathways of services to STC members in their respective communities:

1. Child Protection & Child Safety Services

STC has the legal authority under delegation of the Ministry of Social Services (Child and Family Services Act) to assess, investigate, and respond to alleged reports of child welfare concerns in our member communities.
Well-Being Services works collaboratively with communities to respond to child welfare concerns focusing on addressing safety concerns that support the child’s best interest and build upon family strengths.

2. Secondary-Level Services

Ongoing assessments are essential in enhancing prevention and family support services. Communities are in the best position to know what is required to meet the needs of their families and children.
Well-Being Services helps facilitate and support capacity building in essential prevention and family support services for our member communities through our clinical and technical support services
