Abstract: Organizational environment is an important construct for child welfare agencies striving to support agency workers and provide the best care possible for their clients. Many assessments of organizational environment present difficulties for child welfare agencies, as they are often proprietary, costly, and may not fully cover important dimensions of organizational functioning. The Comprehensive Organizational Health Assessment (COHA) is a freely available assessment of organizational health that has been used in child welfare settings, but has not yet been tested with Indigenous child welfare agencies in Canada.
