Aboriginal Supported Child Development
ASCDP provides services in the Bulkley Valley, Hazeltons and Dease Lake and surrounding areas.
Our focus is to support children requiring extra supports and their families using a family-centered approach through:
-Individual planning
-Family centered services: families know their child best, and have a right and responsibility to make choices for them.
-Families’ strengths, history, culture and dignity are respected. An outreach model that promotes inclusive practices and shared responsibility is followed.
ASCDP Program Delivery:
The program follows an outreach model, where the ASCDP Consultants go into the child and family’s home and community settings to facilitate inclusion in a child care program of the family’s choice. Services are based in the community, and are reflective and responsive to individual family needs and community diversity.
ASCDP Consultants work as part of a coordinated team to facilitate comprehensive program planning for the child who requires extra support. Supports may include; case management, service referrals, parental support to families, resources, training and support caregivers, extra staffing support, transition planning.
