Provincial Social Policy Framework

WHEREAS the Province is supportive of community social well-being and recognizes municipalities as partners in delivering social services, health care, justice and education services; AND WHEREAS our communities are limited in their capacity to deliver many of these services and are facing increasing social challenges: THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that UBCM call upon the Province of British Columbia to initiate the development of a social policy framework that will set out key policy directions, roles and expectations required to coordinate the multiple organizations involved in meeting our social needs.
