About
Explore how to navigate parenting or divorce matters when Child and Family Services (sometimes unexpectedly) becomes involved. These on-demand programs will help you to (1) navigate the initial involvement of CFS, (2) gather recent and past CFS information you may require in a parenting or variation application, and (3) represent a client filing a private guardianship application where the children are in the care of CFS.
Topics include understanding relevant legislation (and all of the acronyms), obtaining disclosure, representing clients in applying for guardianship of children in care, Bill C-92, private guardianship and home study reports, and more.
These on-demand programs also discuss:
- CYFEA Overview
- Disclosure Requests
- An Act Respecting First Nations, Inuit, and Metis Children, Youth, and Families
- Private Guardianship
- Home Study Reports
- Initial Custody Hearings
- Resources
These on-demand programs were originally presented on January 19, 2024 as part of our Child Protection Issues in Family Law Matters program.
The total running time for each presentation ranges between 40 minutes and 1 hour, 5 minutes.
