Our Family Support team provides family-centred, specialized prevention and intervention services. We work directly with parents/caregivers in a variety of ways, tailoring our approach to the family’s unique needs and focusing on how we can assist in strengthening the family unit.
- Our Early Years Family Development Coordinator (FDC) provides complex developmental prevention and intervention services and transition planning for infants, children, and their families or caregivers.
- Our Early Years Family Enrichment Worker (EYFEW) works alongside our FDC, AIDP (Aboriginal Infant Development), and ASCD (Aboriginal Supported Child Development) workers, providing culturally sensitive family-centered support services to enrich parent and family development and holistic well-being with infants and children 0-18 years of age.
- Our Early Years Direct Support Worker (DSW) provides direct support work in childcare settings, some school settings, and other recreational settings for children 3- 6 years of age with complex developmental delays or disorders. We directly assist with school readiness while working collaboratively with the family and the family’s team.
