What Is a Family Resource Network?
Family Resource Networks are an initiative funded by the Government of Alberta to offer parenting and family supports in local neighbourhoods across the province. These services are free and available to families with children aged 0-18 years old.
Families Matter has the privilege of operating two HUB locations, covering both the Northeast and Southeast quadrants of Calgary. With collaboration from other agency partners (Spoke Agencies), our Networks come together to provide free prevention and early intervention programs to help families become resilient, strong, and healthy.
Our Spoke Partners
