The third Gathering Today For Our Aboriginal Children's Future on June 3, 2011 occurred almost one year after the historic inaugural gathering of Chairs of Delegated First Nation Agencies (DFNAs), Representatives of First Nations served by Child and Family Services Authorities (CFSAs), and Co-Chairs of Child and Family Services Authorities. The first meeting on June 17, 2010 provided the impetus for action on several important topics: the role of the First Nations Designate, also referred to as the Band Designate; the review of cultural training within the Ministry; and a Memorandum of Understanding for services to Aboriginal children, youth and families in the Province of Alberta. At the Gathering on June 3, 2011, Chairs and Co-Chairs were provided an update on the significant progress made on these three initiatives.
