According to the ministry’s review, staff at the Children’s Aid Society felt some of those kids didn’t belong in the system at all. KHCAS workers “see themselves as a ‘dumping ground’ and ‘last resort’ for children and families in their community” who weren’t getting the help they should be getting from a mental health and developmental services provider in the community. But it’s not just the workers who felt that way. The ministry report from June 2024 itself acknowledged “long-standing issues in the space between child welfare and (children and youth mental health providers) that are not unique to this community, that sometimes result in children's aid societies acting as a last resort for complex and high-needs children and youth.”
