A
Guide for Young People in Care
Introduction
All young
people in the care of the Ministry of Children and Family Development
have rights. These rights are set out in a law called the Child, Family
and Community Service Act. This booklet explains your rights under the
act, and how they affect you. It also tells you what you can do if you
feel your rights are not being respected.
It is important that you understand your rights. If there is anything
in this booklet that is not clear, discuss it with your worker, caregiver,
or someone else you trust.
