What are Military Family Resource Centres?
Military Family Resource Centres are autonomous, non-profit organizations governed by a volunteer Board of Directors. All of the Centres are mandated to provide consistent service to all military families. Often, that consistency is welcome in a lifestyle that can involve frequent moves and frequent deployments. In addition, each Centre is responsible for developing programs that meet the needs of their specific communities.
Where are other MFRCs located?
Each Canadian military base, including our overseas bases, works in partnership with other Military Family Resource Centres. Visit the Links Page to visit other MFRCs.
Can Reservists and their families use the MFRC?
Yes. All MFRCs receive funding to ensure services are provided to Reservists and their families. Everything offered to the Regular Forces in terms of ongoing services and deployment support is available for Reservists.
Am I eligible for MFRC services?

I'm single. Why would I need to use the MFRC?

It's hard to meet people here - what do you suggest?
