Child Welfare Advocacy

Supervised Visitation Program – Discontinued

 

Our Mission

To dismantle the systemic barriers for parents and family members who need advocacy and support to raise happy, healthy children in a safe environment.

Our Vision

Equity for all families in accessing advocacy and supports.

Our Values

We acknowledge systemic racism is embedded in the social work profession, and the role it has played in upholding oppressive practices that have  disproportionately affected BIPOC communities. As a result, we approach our work from an anti-racist, anti-oppressive, decolonizing framework. We aim to use an intersectional and inclusive lens, therefore we are committed to supporting individuals and families regardless of ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation or faith.

Land Acknowledgement:

In the spirit of reconciliation and healing, we acknowledge that we live, work, and play on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot and the people of the Treaty 7 region in Southern Alberta, which includes the Siksika, the Piikani, the Kainai, the Tsuut’ina, and the Stoney Nakoda First Nations, including Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Wesley First Nation.

“I want to commend Positive Choices for the professional way you handle yourselves. I never once felt as though I was being judged. I really appreciated the welcoming atmosphere.”

- Nicolas, Supervised Visitation Client

“The staff at Positive Choices were incredibly supportive in working with me to facilitate a complex file. I am grateful for the professionalism and their heartfelt commitment.”

- Noah, Former Client

“Thank you so much for coming to present at our Father’s Group. It was absolutely amazing to learn about how you can support clients who experience barriers with Child & Family Services apprehensions. I was inspired and hopeful for positive changes after meeting you.”

- Holly, CUPS Nurturing Parent Facilitator

“Positive Choices support, guidance and presence helped to reduce my stress levels during meetings with my case worker.”

- Candice, Child Welfare Advocacy Client

“Positive Choices was very helpful in ensuring we were well prepared and provided us with excellent information regarding our case. They acted as witnesses and support in our CFSA meetings, and noted important information down during stressful meetings when we couldn’t. I would strongly recommend them without hesitation to any parents in need of child welfare advocacy and support. I wish you guys would get more credit for your work.”

- Christian, Former Client
