Description

The Well-being and Resiliency Framework provides rationale for and describes the ways of working to promote well-being and resiliency in Alberta. It defines the key elements of the prevention continuum of services, identifies desired outcomes, supports decision-making on funding and service delivery and promotes an understanding of how trauma impacts development. The framework captures emerging research and leading practices and reflects the cultural diversity of Alberta. It also incorporates Indigenous perspectives on well-being and resiliency. The framework offers an interconnected perspective by sharing insights about how well-being and resiliency are promoted from both western and Indigenous worldviews.

Description

The Evaluation Framework describes the desired results of the Well-being and Resiliency Framework and outlines ways to monitor progress towards and understand meaning of outcomes. It supports provincial implementation of the Well-being and Resiliency Framework by serving as a platform for ongoing monitoring, adaptation and continuous improvement. The Evaluation Framework will ensure the desired outcomes identified in the Well-being and Resiliency Framework are clearly articulated to be specific, measurable, reasonably achievable, relevant and timely. The Evaluation Framework includes indicators and measures for the defined continuum of services; processes to measure and report on outcomes and effectiveness of wellbeing and resilience programs provincially; and supports regular reporting on the achievement of the overarching outcome of helping children and youth be safe and reach their full potential.

Description

The intent of the Youth Criminal Justice Protocol is to outline procedures for ongoing interactions between Alberta Human Services Child Intervention staff, including Child and Family Services Authorities and Delegated First Nation Agencies (hereby referred to as Child Intervention), and Alberta Justice and Solicitor General, and their agents, in dealing with joint clients. The protocol describes how staff should work together collaboratively for the benefit of youth who have joint status, or for those who need the services of Child Intervention but do not have child intervention status. The protocol creates a process for collaborative case planning as well as resolution of day-to-day issues, thereby laying the foundation for good working relationships and for a more effective coordinated provision of services for youth.
