Document: Although the long-term impacts of COVID-19 are yet to be realized, the current negative impacts are continuing to have rippling effects on the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health of Indigenous girls in and aged out of foster care. In this article, the author describes two community social programs, Urban Butterflies and Mentor Me, which Indigenous children and youth involved in child welfare regularly rely on for various forms of cultural support and visits with their biological families. Urban Butterflies and Mentor Me are the only Indigenous programs in Vancouver specifically dedicated to meeting the cultural needs of Indigenous girls involved in the child welfare system and this is the first time in their history they have been canceled. The authors discuss the effects of program closure and the need to re-structure the programs to be effective in COVID times. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA, all rights reserved)
