Parents' rights, kids' rights : a parent's guide to child protection law in B.C

Summary: "This booklet explains child protection law in BC. It gives you an overview of what happens when someone makes a report about your family to the Director of Child Protection (also known as the BC Ministry of Children and Family Development, ministry, director, or social worker). Your social worker acts for the director or ministry. What happens and how long things take may be different — depending on where you live in BC — because of court access and local support. This booklet can help you if: you're currently dealing with the director, a social worker is worried about your child's safety or well-being, you think a social worker may contact you, or you want to ask the social worker about support services. This booklet is for parents, extended family, advocates, and members of the community who need to know about the rights of parents and children during the child protection process."--
