Abstract
Inclusion is not a full reality for many children and youth living with complex needs (CCNs) and barriers to inclusion are often intensified among Indigenous and newcomer families with children with CCNs. Providing quality services to families with children with CCNs creates more opportunities for their full inclusion into their communities and to improve their health and well-being.
