Family Resource Networks (FRNs) provide supports and services to help Alberta families reach their fullest potential. A variety of services are available across the province for children and youth ages 0 to 18, and their families. Services include:

  • Child and youth development and well-being supports

    Provides age-appropriate programs geared towards promoting healthy development. Program participants of all ages are actively engaged in opportunities to build, strengthen, and master skills through a variety of programming and experiences. Services may include parent and child programs, youth leadership and outreach programs, as well as childhood developmental screenings and assessments.

  • Caregiver capacity building supports

    Includes parenting groups, seminars, classes or one- to- one support to help caregivers develop their parenting knowledge and the skills to provide safe, responsive, and nurturing environments.

  • Social connections and supports

    Includes services that promote positive connections between infants, children, youth, parents, families, caregivers and communities. Services connect participants to both natural and formal support by offering group sessions or one-to-one services to help families navigate community-based resources.

  • Home visitation supports

    Provides in-home parent education and family support services to expectant parents and those with children newborn to 6 years of age. Services are intended to support families who are facing challenges that may place their children at risk and keep them from developing to their full potential. These services focus on the well-being of families and help build healthy, strong communities. The agencies who are a part of the FRNs work to make sure infants, children and youth are safe and resilient, while supporting parents and caregivers.

Services provided through FRNs are available to all Albertans, free of charge, regardless of where they live.

There are 70 FRNs across the province. Each Network is located on the map below. For more detailed information regarding services offered by each FRN, please click on any Network.
