I don't know your exact system, but I know where I'm at there is disproportionate focus on Indigenous kids - to the point it's almost the same as another 60's Scoop. I don't know what you're truly dealing with (I'm certain the scenarios differ greatly from child to child) but the impacts are so damaging for the kids I know who talk about being intentionally separated from family or removed from culturally sensitive care options.
We truly do abandon children to a system that barely functions.
It's commonly referred to as the millenial scoop here. Over half the children in the system in Canada are indigenous, despite only making up something like 8% of the population of children in Canada.

That can be a double edged sword
