As many as 90 First Nations youth have been caught up in this fraud, according to allegations made against BC social worker, Robert Riley Saunders. A lawsuit claims the man took youth into independent living programs and then kept their money, forcing many of them into homelessness. The director of child welfare is accused of not exercising proper oversight of Saunders.
Sadly normal, I fear. Many of our youth fall through the cracks all the time in all aspects of our society and it is depressing. Nobody cares about First Nations youth and I don't know what to say. I am glad he was caught but how many lives have been ruined?
