The Child Advocacy Centre is collaborating with Westbank First Nation to be the fifth partner of the organization.
Launched on Jan. 1, 2020, the centre is a child-friendly facility that supports children and families impacted by child abuse and neglect.
Westbank First Nation (WFN) will join the RCMP, the Ministry of Child and Family Development, the Interior Health Authority and the Central Okanagan Elizabeth Fry Society in a working partnership dedicated to evolving the system of care around vulnerable children.
WFN Chief, Chris Derickson said, his team has been working with the Child Advocacy Centre (CAC) over the past two years in order to come into this partnership.
