Family Resource Centres

Family resource centres provide a variety of community-based activities and resources for children and families that emphasize early childhood development and parenting support. They provide a place for families to gather in a friendly and informal setting.

A variety of programs are offered that reflect the needs of the families who are participating and the communities in which they are located. Types of programs might include everything from drop-in playgroups, Baby and Me groups, parenting workshops, clothing exchanges and toy-lending libraries to community kitchens and healthy lifestyle sessions.

Healthy Baby Club is a prenatal nutrition support program offered by family resource centres for eligible women who may need extra support during and after their pregnancy.

To find out more about family resource centres and the programs they offer in Newfoundland and Labrador contact 709-729-5554 or your local centre.
