Navigating Child Protection as a Parent of African Heritage in Canada
For many parents of African heritage in Canada, interactions with child protection services can be a source of anxiety and mistrust. Cultural misunderstandings, systemic biases, and a lack of representation often lead to strained relationships between families and child welfare authorities.
The consequences can be severe—unnecessary investigations, fear of losing custody, and long-lasting emotional trauma. These challenges are compounded by the fact that many African heritage families may not be fully aware of their rights or the resources available to support them.
Building Stronger Connections
At Thriving African Families, we believe that the solution lies in building stronger, more informed connections. By bridging the gap between families and child protection services, we can create a supportive environment where every parent feels heard, respected, and empowered. This event is a step toward that vision, offering a platform for open dialogue, mutual learning, and community-driven solutions.
Why You Should Attend
By coming together, we can change the narrative. We can replace fear and mistrust with collaboration and support.
We can ensure that our families are not only protected but also empowered to thrive. Join us at this crucial event and be part of the change that strengthens our community and our connections.
