The purpose of the Representative for Children and Youth’s (RCY) reviews and investigations of child deaths and critical injuries is to identify and thoughtfully analyze issues – particularly service delivery. The intent is to help prevent similar deaths or injuries in the future and to inform improvements to services.

Independently reviewing, investigating and reporting out on these deaths and critical injuries are essential elements of public accountability and promoting public confidence in the child-serving systems. These reviews and investigations are done in a timely, fair, respectful and thorough manner.
