Youth Homelessness Assistance Services and Child Protection: What is the role of the Advocate for Children in Care?
This CHP Policy Bulletin raises concerns about the alarming numbers of 12-15 year olds who are clients of SAAP. SAAP services are not designed to work with young people of this age, yet many are unable to access the Child Protection system. As a result, these young people are falling through the gaps in service delivery.
