Accountability
Tikinagan is accountable to the public and communities we serve. As one of our nine values, Tikinagan is committed to excellence and dependability in all aspects of service delivery.
How to Raise a Concern or Complaint About Tikinagan Services
Most complaints about services can be settled by the worker and the client. So, speak to your worker when you feel there are any problems. Often this leads to a better understanding and an improved relationship. However, if you are not satisfied with the solution, you have the right to pursue it further.
Tikinagan’s complaint process provides an opportunity for complaints to be dealt with in a fair, and timely manner and is designed to put into practice Tikinagan’s core values and work in the true spirit of the Mamow Obiki-ahwahsoowin service delivery model – “Everyone Working Together to Raise our Children.” Learn more by visiting our Complaints page.
