Abstract

The nine Meadow Lake Tribal Council (MLTC) communities in Saskatchewan. Canada, and the University of Victoria's School of Child and Youth Care (SCYC) are working in partnership to create a culturally appropriate training program for Cree and Dene child and youth care workers. This model of cross-cultural child and youth care education is based upon a unique philosophy that encompasses seven basic principles. In this paper, the authors discuss each of these philosophical principles in terms of the MLTC/SCYC joint project. They conclude with a brief statement of the broader cross-cultural implications of the project's philosophy on child and youth care education and practice.
