​

In Canada, 52.2% of children in foster care are Indigenous, but account for only 7.7% of the child population according to Census 2016. This means 14,970 out of 28,665 foster children in private homes under the age of 15 are Indigenous.

​

The first five Calls to Action by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission relate to child welfare.

​

The 'Not My Scoop' project is answering the call and

setting out to create better understanding of

Canada's Indigenous child welfare system.
