Children are the future of the world
Family Centre, based in Lethbridge, is a non-profit organization providing a comprehensive range of services to children, youth and families in Southwestern Alberta. We are the hub for Lethbridge’s Family Resource Network. With 5 community agencies and 3 locations to serve the community, our Mission is to empower children and families through programs, resources and connections. The vision that we are always seeking to achieve is, Healthy Children! Healthy Families! Healthy Communities!
Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are negative, stressful, traumatizing events that occur before age 18. The long-term impacts of ACEs are well studied and can produce many negative outcomes for individuals into adolescence and adulthood without the tools and support to cope. This is why prevention and early intervention is paramount to Family Centre’s work in the community. Empowering families with support, education and resources builds lifelong protective factors that prevent risk factors from developing. Additionally, identifying and addressing risk factors and vulnerabilities in families early on reduces the need for more intensive intervention later.
