      History

      The Children, Family and Community Services Division was established in 1992 within the Ministry of Community and Social Services, replacing the Community Health and Support Services Division (1990-1992).

      The Division included the Child Care Branch, the Children's Services Branch and the Community Services Unit. In 1998 the Division added the Aboriginal Healing and Wellness Strategy Unit, and a Divisional Administrative Team.

      In 2001, the ministry was restructured and the Children, Family and Community Services Division disappeared, many of its functions being taken over by the Integrated Services for Children Division and the Community and Developmental Services Division.
