Overview
Family resource centres assist individuals with disabilities and their families with managing their family managed agreement. This includes providing support related to accessing services and understanding their agreements as well as delivery of training and offering information/referral services.
Family resource centre staff assist families who manage their own services through the Persons with Developmental Disabilities (PDD) and Family Support for Children with Disabilities (FSCD) programs.
Information about disability services can also be obtained by all Albertans to understand the variety of supports and services available in Alberta.
Albertans can access services virtually through online and telephone channels.
