The Aboriginal Child & Family Services program addresses the concerns of First Nations, Métis, and urban Aboriginals as they respond to the redesign of family and social services for children and families as well as the move by First Nations People to provide local control for social programs.
As an Aboriginal Child & Family Services student, all of your courses will emphasize the influence that family, health and culture have on child development. You'll learn practical skills to provide help as a qualified child and family services employee. The certificate and diploma options of the Aboriginal Child & Family Services program are offered in Edmonton. |
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
