History
The Intergrated Services for Children and Youth Secretariat was established in 1992 to ensure the coordination of activities and carry out the work of the Interministry Committee on Services for Children and Youth, which had been established 2 years earlier in 1990. This Interministerial Committee provided leadership, within and across ministries, to guide the integration of programs, policies and services that assist children, youth and families in moving toward the goal of healthy child development.
The Interministerial Committee crossed 11 ministries at the initial stage: Education, Health, Community and Social Services, Housing, Tourism and Recreation, the Solicitor General, the Attorney General, Correctional Services, Natural Resources, and Skills Development, as well as the Ontario Women's Directorate, the Ontario Anti-Racism Secretariat, the Office for Disability Issues and the Premier's Council on Health, Well-Being and Social Justice.
The Integrated Services for Children and Youth Secretariat was established using existing resources and located in the Ministry of Education. The Secretariat reported to the Assistant Deputy Minister of the Education Programs and Services Division as Chair of the Interministerial Committee on Services for Children and Youth.
Two years after the Secretariat was disbanded (ca. 1993), a new inter-departmental committee was reactivated, the Tri-Ministry Committee on Services for Children and Youth, chaired by an assistant deputy minister of Community and Social Affairs.
