5 minute read 7:31 PM CDTFirst Nations babies have become involved with Manitoba’s child-welfare system at a “shocking” rate over the past 20 years, says the lead author of a new study published Wednesday.
University of Manitoba researcher Kathleen Kenny, a post-doctoral fellow in community health sciences at the Rady School of Medicine, said the need for change is urgent.
“The findings are shocking when you think one in three of all First Nations infants born in our study period had (Child and Family Services) involvement,” said Kenny.
The research was published in the journal Child Abuse & Neglect.
