The Representative for Children and Youth (RCY), an independent and non-partisan officer of the B.C. Legislature, works to influence positive change to B.C.'s child-, youth- and young adult-serving systems. Working under the authority of the Representative for Children and Youth Act and Regulations , the Representative's Office provides advocacy support to people dealing with the service system and advocates directly on behalf of children, youth and young adults, monitors and reviews government services for children and youth and reviews and sometimes investigates deaths and critical injuries of children and youth who are receiving services.
We aspire to a legacy where children, youth, young adults and families served by the child and family serving systems receive timely, appropriate and compassionate support and services that they need, when they need it. We dream of a Province where all children and families thrive and where experiences of stigma, shame, judgment and racism have been eliminated.
Overview of Position
Reporting to a Manager within the Systemic Advocacy, First Nations, Métis and Inuit Research team, Researchers work in collaboration with other RCY program areas and our Matriarchs and Elders Council, to design and carry out research projects that centre the voice of youth and young people, their families and communities and build off the expertise of rights holders, sector partners and service providers to contribute to collective systemic action. Researchers play an important role in catalyzing system-wide changes through relational and strategic work that reflects anti-racist approaches, cultural safety and inclusion frameworks throughout the process. Fundamental to this position is cultural agility; specifically, that Researchers can apply cultural agility throughout the project life cycle, implement Indigenous research methodologies and engage in two-eyed seeing as a way of supporting the RCY to actively decolonize our research practices and processes.
