About this service
Family Group Conferencing (FGC) is an alternative approach to working with and engaging families in the child protection context. The main objective of FGC is to give the extended family group (i.e., nuclear family, extended family, and friends) a voice in the decision-making process to ensure the safety and well-being of children at risk or in need of protection. FGC is a culturally-sensitive, alternative approach to child protection that empowers marginalized families; bringing together family group members to craft a plan of care for their children that addresses concerns identified by child welfare/childrens mental health professionals. A main benefit of the FGC process is that plans are developed for the vast majority of these children to return to or remain within their extended family systems.
