Client Concerns Resolution Process (CCRP)

VACFSS is committed to delivering services that are grounded in our core values of belonging, respect, humility, integrity and strength based practice. If you are not satisfied with our services, you may be eligible to make a complaint by contacting the Quality Assurance Advisor (QAA). The purpose of the Client Concern Resolution Process (CCRP) is to empower families to voice their concerns and come together collaboratively to find resolution that focuses on rebuilding relationships.

One may want to make a complaint if:

  • They are unsure why a certain decision was made
  • They feel you were treated unfairly
  • They were denied VACFSS services
  • Their rights as a child in care were not respected

Who can make a complaint?

  • People who are receiving services from VACFSS
  • People who feel they should be receiving services from VACFSS
