Social ­workers overwhelmed, union says in response to Granby death

Record Staff – The Alliance du personnel professionnel et technique de la santé et des services sociaux (APTS) issued a response to the population’s heavy criticism of youth protection services after the tragic death of a seven-year-old girl in Granby last week. The APTS is a union that regroups over 55,000 health and social services workers in Quebec.
Emmanuel Breton, provincial representative for the Eastern Townships, spoke out about the horrific story, which shook the province to its core. “Members of the Eastern Townships are deeply afflicted by this tragedy. No child should suffer, or worse, die like this in our society. It’s a heartbreaking story that must absolutely confront collectively,” he began.  See full story in the Wednesday, May 8 edition of The Record.
