If you are a child or youth living in a facility, foster home, group home or other home or place, you have the right to contact the Children's Advocate.
Call our Office at toll-free 1-800-322-7221 or in Saskatoon 933-6700. You can also email us at childadvocate@saskcao.ca.
Section 12.7 The Ombudsman and Children's Advocate Act requires that any such request from a child or youth in care or custody shall be immediately forwarded to the Children's Advocate by the person in charge of the facility or home.
If you write a letter to the Children's Advocate, the person in charge of the facility or home you live in must immediately forward the letter, unopened, to the Children's Advocate Office.
All calls and contact with our Office remain confidential and we will only advocate on your behalf or investigate your concerns with your agreement. We will also keep you informed of our progress and provide information when it is available.
