DESCRIPTION:First Nations children experience denials\, delays\, and disrup
 tion of services ordinarily available to other Canadian children in simila
 r circumstances. Service disparities are a result of geography (distance f
 rom a service hub)\, program administration and policy design (division of
  responsibilities\, etc.)\, and funding disparities between provincially a
 nd federally provided services. The discrimination of First Nations childr
 en in the system for the provision of public services is a pressing social
  issue that violates First Nations children’s human\, constitutional\, and
  Treaty rights. In this seminar\, we will present preliminary findings fro
 m a research project carried out in collaboration with Pinaymootang First 
 Nation\, an Anishinaabe band from Manitoba’s Interlake Region. We explore 
 the services available to children with complex needs living in the commun
 ity and to their primary caregivers\, and argue that current policy forces
  the community’s service providers to function in a context of excessive b
 urden\, uncertainty\, and risk. We conclude that severe service disparitie
 s remain a pressing human rights concern and argue that community-level da
 ta is the key to developing policies that better ensure that all Canadian 
 children have access to the services they need regardless of their race\, 
 Status\, or place of residence (on or off reserve).\n\nFor more informatio
