Description of the organization's activities
The Child Welfare League of Canada (CWLC) is a national, membership-based charitable organization dedicated to promoting the safety and well-being of young people and their families, especially those who are marginalized and systematically oppressed. We advocate for and promote legislation, policy, research, programs, and services that address the underlying causes of precarity and trauma. We convene leaders, organizations, researchers, governments, and people with lived experience to learn and improve our practices.
