These communities are creating programs that are relevant and appropriately utilized by community members and that are helping to revitalize Indigenous knowledge and languages.

The predominant patchwork approach to services Most communities in Canada today maintain an individual-centred and non-integrated approach to family and children's services. In this fragmented model, people receiving services are conceived as individual cases with an array of separate needs, subject to servicing by an array of separate professional service providers. The fragmentation of training and services into increasingly differentiated domains of specialization corresponds to dominant cultural constructions of the child in psychology and education as a collection of ‘domains ’ of development, each with distinct proclivities, potential, and needs for different kinds of support.
