Our programs prioritize supporting women, children, gender-diverse individuals, parents, caregivers, and families, including those involved with the Child and Family Services (CFS) system.
We work alongside families to strengthen relationships, support reunification when appropriate, and help parents build confidence, connection, and joy in their parenting journey. We believe that strong relationships are at the heart of healthy families and thriving communities.
Participants can access support with:
- Navigating Child and Family Services (CFS)
- Advocacy and communication with service providers
- Housing and income assistance applications
- Accessing childcare and parenting supports
- Mental health and counselling referrals
- Substance use recovery supports
- Building healthy support networks
- Connecting to community resources and programs
- Wellness planning and goal setting
Our programs focus on mental health, substance use recovery, parenting, family wellbeing, and overall wellness, offering safe spaces for connection, learning, and growth.
Participants can access counselling, wellness workshops, parenting supports, cultural and community connection activities, social events, and practical resources designed to build resilience and promote wellbeing in a welcoming, supportive, and inclusive environment.
Afternoon programming is designed to be child-friendly, allowing parents, caregivers, and children to participate together whenever possible.
Community Hub – Morning Connections
Our Community Hub is open to everyone each morning, including men.
Whether you’re looking for support, information, or simply a welcoming place to connect, we’re here to help. Our team can assist with:
- System navigation and connecting you with community resources
- Access to our Free Market (eligibility criteria apply)
- Mental health supports and referrals
- Information about programs and services
- A welcoming space to build community
While Thrive Community Support Circle is a Family Resource Centre, we recognize that families include dads, grandpas, uncles, brothers, and other important men. Men play an essential role in strong, healthy communities, and we encourage them to participate in our programs, volunteer, share their skills and experiences, or simply stop by for a coffee and conversation.
Whether you’re looking for support or looking for a way to give back, you’ll find a place for you in our Community Hub.
