- 1966 - 1979
The series consists of the executive records of the office of the Assistant Deputy Minister of Human Resources. The records document key activities of the Assistant Deputy Minister’s office related to administering the ministry’s social services and income security programs. The Assistant Deputy Minister supports the Deputy Minister to deliver programs related to income assistance, disability services, supports for seniors, family and children’s services, child protection services, Pharmacare, and other social services. The records were created and received by the Assistant Deputy Minister’s office between 1966-1979 in British Columbia. During this time period, the Assistant Deputy Minister’s office fell under the Ministry of Human Resources (1976-1986), Department of Human Resources (1973-1976), Department of Rehabilitation and Social Improvement (1970-1973), and the Department of Social Welfare (1959-1970). Some of the files relate to child care, community health and human resources centres, family and children’s services, seniors’ services, health care, PharmaCare, the Vancouver Resources Board, and the regionalization of social programs and services. The latter reinforces the regional service delivery structure of the ministry, defined by geographic areas.
The records are arranged alphabetically by subject. They consist of correspondence, news clippings, memoranda, reports, meeting materials, policy documents, and research files. The records are covered by the Executive Records schedule (schedule 102906).
