Supporting Nisg̱a’a Culture

Once the NLG Designated Representative receives a notice of significant measures involving a Nisg̱a’a child regarding non-court related matters, such as investigations, safety plans, Special Needs Agreements, Youth Agreements, Extended Family Program, Family Service Resource and Voluntary Care Agreements, a member of the Court Resource Team may attend and participate in planning. When the Designated Representative received notice of court proceedings involving the custody or guardianship of a Nisg̱a’a child, a member of the Court Resources Team can attend court and participate in the proceedings in order to ensure that the Nisg̱a’a heritage of the child and the connection with Nisg̱a’a family and community is protected.
