Abstract

This study describes insights shared by Indigenous Elders in British Columbia, Canada, who were asked about kinship care practices involving Indigenous children. It arises from a community-guided research study that set out to explore how child welfare organizations that work with Indigenous children and families can develop kinship care practices that honor traditional Indigenous values, beliefs, and practices around kinship care. In-person interviews took place with eight Elders in the fall of 2022. Thematic analysis revealed three themes: (a) kinship care as a traditional practice, (b) kinship care and current child welfare systems, and (c) creating kinship care practices that uphold traditional Indigenous values, beliefs, and practices. This article discusses these themes and their sub-themes and offers suggestions for child welfare organizations, policy-makers, and practitioners.
长者的智慧:尊重土著传统方式的亲情关怀
这项研究描述了加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省土著长老分享的见解,他们被问及涉及土著儿童的亲属关系护理实践。它源于一项社区指导的研究,该研究旨在探索与土著儿童和家庭合作的儿童福利组织如何发展亲属关系护理实践,以尊重土著传统价值观、信仰和亲属关系护理的实践。2022年秋季,对八位长者进行了面对面的采访。专题分析揭示了三个主题:(a)作为一种传统做法的亲属关系护理,(b)亲属关系护理和当前的儿童福利制度,以及(c)创造维护传统土著价值观、信仰和做法的亲属护理做法。本文讨论了这些主题及其子主题,并为儿童福利组织、政策制定者和从业者提供了建议。
