Announcement that Terms of Reference are now in place for the Yukon Trilateral Table on the Wellbeing of Yukon First Nations Children and Families. Established in 2018, the Trilateral Table has provided the first real opportunity for all three parties to work together to improve child and family services for Yukon First Nations.  The signing of Terms of Reference is a first step in the Trilateral Table’s work to facilitate information-sharing, and undertake collaborative decision-making on priorities, program implementation and resources. The vision of its members is for First Nations children to have equitable opportunities to grow up safely at home with their families. The Trilateral Table’s first priority will be the development of a work plan which will guide its work, including:

• collaborative actions;
• determining future direction and potential reforms;
• alignment of current initiatives;
• setting annual targets and indicators; and
• ensuring alignment with other priority work in Yukon.
