Abstract:听

Without denial, delay or disruption: Ensuring First Nations children鈥檚 access to equivalent services through Jordan鈥檚 Principle听describes the existence of widespread jurisdictional ambiguities and underfunding in health and social services for First Nations children.听 The research presented in the report indicates that jurisdictional ambiguities and underfunding give rise to gaps and disparities in the services available to First Nations children. It further suggests that, as a result, First Nations children can encounter differential standards of service, require increased-intensity interventions by health and social service systems, and even face increased risk of institutional care.
