Reaching Out

Reaching Out is a service to support individuals facing barriers to participating in conventional parent education and support programs. Parent education and support is delivered informally and is designed to meet the needs of young parents, individuals with limited literacy, individuals living with limited resources and isolated parents and child care providers. Parenting and other relevant community information is shared and referrals are made to ongoing parent/child programs and support services in the community when appropriate.

 

Support and advocacy are provided regarding:

  • Child development and behavior guidance
  • Safety and nutrition
  • Finding local resources and community information
  • Life skills and crisis management
  • Working with the Children's Aid Society
  • Mental health supports
  • Other, based on individual needs.

Clients may be referred individually or as a group.

The outreach worker is available to offer services city wide.
