"The development of the "in your grasp" database arose out of the recognized need for caregivers to have direct and immediate access to information regarding support services available through British Columbia. Organized by region and service type, "in your grasp" provides caregivers with the information they need within minutes.
In addition to serving the foster and adoption community, this database will be a resource to the Ministry of Children and Family Development (MCFD), service agencies, and the general public."
