The graphic novels were created through engagement with Indigenous youth across Alberta.

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.
