Overview

The Government of the Northwest Territories (GNWT) is proposing amendments to the Child and Family Services Act. These amendments are intended to align the NWT’s Child and Family Services Act with the federal government’s Act respecting First Nations, Inuit and Métis children, youth and families and to reflect best practices in other jurisdictions and enhance existing provisions that have proven to be effective.
