Programs for Your Clients

Outreach Programs - for your client families experiencing barriers to participation in mainstream parent/child activities.


The Parent Resource Centre provides several programs to which you may refer parents and their young children:

 

Growing Up Downtown - parent/child program offering resources and activities for families living in difficult circumstances in the centre of the city.

 

Supporting Neighbourhood Caregivers - training for parents and other caregivers in neighbourhoods where low income, limited literacy, social isolation, and being new to Canada are realities. The training is non-print based and addresses child development, health and safety, how to care for children, and how to choose a caregiver.

 

Reaching Out - a service to support individuals facing barriers to participating in conventional parent education and support programs.


The following programs are usually self-referral, but please check them out for your clients:

  • Parent Child Mother Goose - a literacy and bonding experience for parents and their young children.
  • Post Partum Depression Support

 

Tip of the Day
Try to turn some No's into Yes's. Instead of "No cookies before supper," say, "Yes, you can have a cookie after supper." Everyone (even parents) finds it easier to handle a "yes" than a "no".
