Goals

The Program aims to:

ensure the deployment of initiatives aimed at the development of families and the development of children;
to perpetuate the activities already offered, to increase services and to promote access to them for families;
to provide an appropriate response to the needs of families and communities;
to promote the emergence of collective and innovative solutions;
improve the quality of the social fabric and solidarity networks with families.

The activities offered by family community organizations can take different forms, such as:

individual or group workshops aimed at developing parenting skills;
coffee talks, to break social isolation;
community drop-in daycare activities, to allow parents to benefit from moments of respite.

In this regard, the Program is divided into three distinct components:

Component/Stream 1 - Support for the overall mission of family community organizations (OCF) and national OCF groups;

Component/Stream 2 - Support for family partners;

Component/STream 3 - Support for one-off projects
