About Us
Families Canada is the national association of family support centres. Our members are community-level organizations who provide hubs of free services, programs, and resources to primarily low-income and disadvantaged families in communities across Canada. Through our 500+ members, we impact the lives of approximately 500,000 families per year. For over 40 years, we have helped our members meet the evolving and complex needs of families by:
- Piloting, adapting, and scaling evidence-based programming
- Developing and disseminating evidence-informed resources
- Providing professional development opportunities
In our work, we partner with private, public, non-profit and academic organizations to turn knowledge into practice. A multisector approach is essential for addressing barriers and strengthening families.
Our history and future are defined by our support for Canada’s families. We have evolved to embrace new dimensions of family life, new challenges, and new opportunities.
Families Canada has a proud history of practical initiatives and projects that benefit family support practitioners and those they serve. Check out our current initiatives and past projects for more information.
