Territorial human rights legislation that protects individuals from discriminatory activity that can occur between themselves and private entities (such as employers, unions or restaurants) or provincial/municipal public services (such as public transportation) which are normally open and available to the general public. It protects not only against active discrimination, including harassment but also against the failure of these entities to fulfill their duty to accomodate resulting in an adverse impact on an individual or group. 
 

The Northwest Territories does not have a Children’s Advocate Office. Concerns should be directed to the appropriate Health and Social Services Authority and/or the Health and Social Service Navigator (http://www.hss.gov.nt.ca/health-and-social-services-system-navigator).
