Résumé
"The Front Line Voices summit followed on the provincial government’s commitment to the recommendations of Judge John
Guy’s inquest report released in January 2008 into the death of 14 year old Tracia Owen. The first of the 28 recommendations
was to hold a summit involving all stakeholders “to examine all possible law enforcement, legislative and legal means to
create a strategy for the attack on sexual exploitation and drug abuse of children on our streets.”
The two day summit workshops in Thompson and Winnipeg resulted in recommendations related to the four key themes of the
summit: 1) legislation and law enforcement; 2) continuum of services; 3) breaking the silence; and 4) child, youth, family
and community empowerment. Following the opening program and presentation from Elders and speakers in Thompson and
Winnipeg, participants divided into work groups to identify issues, opportunities and gaps in the four thematic areas and
identified priority recommendations. This report provides an overview of the recommendations resulting from the workshops
and a plan of action."--Page 4.
