Episode 94 | Transforming the Family Justice System: Continuing to Innovate to Support Family Well-Being

In this episode, host Christine O’Doherty is joined by special guests Tina Parbhakar, Amy Schwab, and Jane Morley, K.C., to explore the Transform the Family Justice System Collaborative, an innovative initiative in British Columbia, launched in 2022. As key contributors to this groundbreaking user-centred initiative, the guests share their insights on efforts to redesign the family justice system. Together, they discuss strategies for enhancing child and youth participation, fostering cross-sector collaboration, using developmental and transformational evolution approaches and developing creative solutions for families. Their conversation offers a deep dive into the ongoing collective impact work to make family justice more accessible, inclusive, and responsive.
