Summary: "At its essence, a child welfare system should protect society's most vulnerable children from abuse and neglect and fill the role of "prudent parent" for the children it takes into care. This report details how British Columbia's child welfare system failed on both counts to fulfill these basic roles and it outlines the devastating effects that failure has had on the life of one Aboriginal child"--P. 3.
