Who are we?
QFILU's role
In the context of the National Inquiry on Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, Justice Canada has called on different representatives of Canadian provinces and territories in the field of services to victims to deploy Family Information Liaison Units.
The purpose of these units is to guide and assist victims’ families in their search for information with different agencies and services concerned. In Québec, the mandate was assigned to the Bureau d’aide aux victimes d’actes criminels (BAVAC) of the Ministère de la Justice.
The unit acts as a single point of access to information for victims’ families to ensure liaison between the agencies and the services.
