Decides who is in the behavioral classes, who doesn"t get the services, who gets expelled. No code of ethics, not mandatory or not necessary for any agencies (other than tdsb) Credentials between w and c (cyw/cyc), we are getting bachelor of arts not bachelor of child and youth care. Critical reflection is critiquing yourself, looking at the oppressor within, the bad guy isn"t always outside but sometimes inside. No clear definition of child and youth care. Different credentials for different positions; residential settings don"t require cyc degree.
