The Family Support Centre provides education, information, referrals, and support to low-income families through a range of services and outreach programs. Families build on their strengths and learn new skills. The project's objectives are to promote family unity and healthy interactions between parents and children, to promote parenting skills, and to provide a nurturing environment for children ages 0 to 6 with age-appropriate resources aimed at encouraging their physical, emotional, intellectual, and social development. These objectives are met through parent education and support groups, a nutrition program, child care services and play groups.
The Bridgwater Family Support Centre is a coalition member of the South Shore Family Resource Association.
