The Henvey Inlet First Nation Child and Family Wellbeing Project

The Henvey Inlet First Nation (HIFN) Child and Family Wellbeing Project, supported by Indigenous Services Canada, seeks to reclaim jurisdiction over the care and protection of HIFN’s children and families.

This initiative focuses on developing a Law which will take precedence over provincial law when it comes to Henvey’s children and families.

The development of this law is done through extensive community engagement and consultation. Avaanz, in partnership with the law firm Fogler Rubinoff, is facilitating this process which is supported and overseen by the Child and Family Wellbeing Working Group.

A series of community engagement sessions and events are being planned throughout 2024 and 2025 and are key to developing the basis of Henvey Inlet’s Child and Family Wellbeing Law.

Please see the information sheet for a more detailed description of the project as well as the link to our survey to gain feedback on the child and family wellbeing needs of the community. Keep an eye out for future gatherings and events related to the project!
