Child Welfare Protection- Important Contact Information
The Department of Family Services would like to remind everyone that we all have a duty to report incidents of child abuse and neglect to the Family Wellness Division by calling your local family services office and speaking with a Community Social Services Worker.
If you are concerned about the safety and wellbeing of a child and/or youth, call your local Community Social Services Office:
- Territory-wide contact: 1-844-FW-CHILD (1-844-392-4453)
- Iqaluit:
- 1. Social Services Office: (867) 975-5777
- 2. Social Services Emergency: (867) 979-5650
- 3. RCMP: (867) 975-1111
Social services and local RCMP contact information for each community can be found on the Family Wellness section of our website at https://www.gov.nu.ca/family-services/information/child-protection.
If you are concerned about the services that a child or youth are receiving or have comments or compliments to share, contact us at 1 855 522-5201 or email us at @email.
