What is Jordan’s Principle?

Jordan’s Principle is a legal rule in Canada that ensures First Nations youth have access to the services they need.

Those services include health, education and social services.

It ensures that when a young person or their family/guardian submits an application to the government for help, they must receive a response within 48 hours.
