Strengthening Families for the Future

For Families with children aged 7 – 17

Come out and join us in this 11-week program for caring adults, children, and teens. It is a prevention program endorsed by CAMH (Centre for Addiction and Mental Health) that provides families with skills to enhance their communication and improve their relationships.

The program provides valuable tools by covering topics including communication skills, peer pressure, anger, and expectations.
This is an interactive program and families will be broken up into 4 groups – children (7-10), youth (11-14), teens (15-17), and caregivers – before coming back together as a family and working together on the skills learned and developed throughout the program.
