Description

Albertans have raised concerns about the Persons with Developmental Disabilities (PDD) Safety Standards Regulation. As a result, a Consultation Team was appointed to oversee an engagement on what the safety standards should be for people receiving services through PDD and who they should apply to. This survey was developed to better understand your opinions on safety in the homes of Albertans receiving PDD program supports. This will help the Consultation Team identify solutions that foster safety in the community and affirm the rights of persons with developmental disabilities to live with dignity and opportunity in the community while recognizing and respecting their need for safe, healthy and supported lives.

Description

The Aboriginal Engagement and Strategy (AES) division was formed in the department of Human Services in the fall of 2011 to enhance the capacity and cultural competency of the child intervention system to serve Aboriginal children and families. The division decided on the Community Conversation model to gather information as part of the process to meet this mandate. Community conversations bring together people with diverse perspectives to share their insights on a topic of common importance. Between December 2011 and May 2013, the Division met with over 1,300 people throughout the province. This report summarizes the information that was gathered by AES through these conversations.
