Mount Pleasant Family Centre Society provides education & support programs via drop in & outreach for local & refugee families with kids 0-6 in Vancouver.
As we wrap up our first Family Place Week, we would like to thank our members and our funders for their commitment, enthusiasm and continued support of the Family Place Partnership, which brings many benefits to the whole community.

The Family Place Partnership is in a unique position to assist the community in building connections. It aims to create a sense of belonging in the community by being open and welcome to all families and to bridge cultures to increase acceptance of diversity. #FamilyPlaceWeek
We are still safely running the 'Nobody's Perfect' program for parents. Moms & Dads decide the themes of the course with the help of our staff, and through discussion, mutual support, and encouragement parents experience transformative growth leading to parental confidence.

Family Place was founded in the 70s by 2 moms who recognized they needed support on their new parenting journey-and discovered they weren't the only ones! Years later, Family Place remains the same comfortable and welcoming place, not only for kids but for parents/caregivers
Did you know? Family Place carefully sets up toy and craft stations to encourage developmental growth. Careful consideration is given to these zones to allow all children 0-6 to find a space that suits their needs. #FamilyPlaceWeek
It's #FamilyPlaceWeek! The Family Place Partnership provides a welcoming, safe and supportive place for #YoungFamilies benefitting the whole community. Watch local parents, caregivers and staff share their feelings on the service that #FamilyPlace offers! https://t.co/qCjXigUfck
