MNAASGED Customary Care Customary care is part of the continuum of care options for Aboriginal children, recognizing that Customary Care is a culturally relevant model of Aboriginal child welfare and incorporating the unique traditions and customs of each First Nation. Customary Care is a traditional method of caring for children, premised on the belief that a child is a sacred gift from the Creator and as such is the collective responsibility of the community. Customary Care Agreements are utilized when protection concerns in a family require out-of-home placement. A Customary Care home must comply with all requirements of foster care licensing after 60 days, if that person is willing and able to continue providing a safe place for the child.
