South Island Contracted Service Delivery Project

Planning Today for a Better Tomorrow

In January of 2008, the Vancouver Island Region of the Ministry of Children and Family Development initiated a project to develop a sustainable service delivery plan for contracted services in the South Island area, which includes Westshore and Sooke, Peninsula and the Gulf Islands and the core Victoria area.

The purpose of the South Island Contracted Service Delivery Project is to review non-residential services through a community-engagement process and develop a new, multi-year service delivery plan for implementation in the Spring, 2010. The services covered by the project include Child and Family Development, Adoptions, Youth Justice, Early Childhood Development, Child and Youth Mental Health and Children and Youth with Special Needs.

Working in collaboration with our community partners, the Vancouver Island Region is committed to providing integrated and continuous services that reflect a balance of prevention and intervention and provide the best possible outcomes for children, youth and families in the South Island area.

The project – which is guided by a set of principles and supported by key goals – is structured in three phases:

  • Phase one review of services (March – September 2008)
  • Phase two development of a service-delivery plan (September – December 2009)
  • Phase three implementation of the plan (February – September 2010)

The following list of documents provides background information and updates for each phase of the project:
