The Northwest Child Development Centre is committed to the provision of quality services in a family environment. We welcome all feedback from families.
1. Annual Family Satisfaction Survey
The NWCDC distributes annual family satisfaction surveys to gather information from families accessing our services/program. We use information gathered families to help us to improve our programs and services. Information is treated confidentially and you will not be identified with your responses. To ensure you receive a survey, please contact us.
2. Service Completion Family Feedback Form
The NWCDC will send a Family Feedback Form to all families upon completion of services (discharged). Information is treated confidentially and you will not be identified with your responses. To ensure you receive a form, please contact us.
You have a right to have support through this process. If you need help finding an advocate, please ask the Executive Director for further information.
Once the problem has been formally investigated, a decision will be made and the outcome shared with you in writing.
If you are unhappy with the outcome, you have a right to complain to the Ministry of Children and Family Development, www.gov.bc.ca under Ministries/MCFD
