ACFN's Social development program delivers a number of social development programs for ACFN members.
Adult Care Program
The goal of this program is to provide services for First Nation people living on reserve with functional limitations. These limitation are due to old age, disability or health problems and require care. There are three components to this program: in-home care, foster care and institutional care. The social development officer for the band determines who is eligible through the financial and social needs of the client.
Social Assistance Program
ACFN administers the on-reserve social assistance program. The goal of the program is to provide people and families with the basic necessities of life like food, shelter, and clothing. INAC provides the funding for this program, but ACFN delivers the programs to ACFN members.
Child & Family Services
ATC's Child & Family Services department handles all of the on-reserve child and family service issues. The goal of this department is to protect children.
