Anishinabek families that are involved or at-risk of becoming involved in child protection matters can access support through the Anishinabek Nation Circle Process, a culturally-based, voluntary, child-centered, confidential circle, providing Anishinabek First Nation families with the support needed to create a plan that addresses child and youth well-being issues. This service is coordinated through Koganaawsawin, the central coordinating body of the Anishinabek Child, Youth, and Family Well-Being System. Leanna Farr, in-house legal counsel with the Anishinabek Nation, explains how the Circle Process is meant to be a safe space and an alternative to mainstream courts and dispute resolution processes. Developed with the guidance of the Anishinabek Nation Child Well-Being Working Group, the Circle Process guiding principles and in-depth training are strongly rooted in our Anishinaabe culture. This podcast is produced by the Communications Department at the Anishinabek Nation. Music: “Brothers” by Wolf Saga and Chippewa Travellers, and “Just Us” by Wolf Saga and David R. Maracle, licensed by Nagamo Publishing. “Easy Lemon” by Kevin MacLeod. Click here to download the transcript:
