Families with Special Needs
MFRCs within Canada and abroad work to support Canadian Forces families. We offer community based programming, and we are responsive to the needs of our families. Within our communities, there are families with special needs and responsibilities that care for children with special needs, have a partner with health concerns, help support aging parents and want to support a CF member with an operational injury.
Navigator Program
The Navigator contact at your local MFRC, can assist you with your unique circumstances when it comes to:
- relocation
- preparing for an upcoming deployment
- connecting with other families in your community
- finding direction when you’re not sure who to call
Visit the Navigator website to learn about the resources available to you (English site, Francais site).
Social Thinking Group
Is your child having difficulty in social situations? If so, the MFRC is piloting a four-week social thinking group for 6-9 year olds. Social Thinking helps children gain the skills for everyday social interactions. Social thinking groups teach children concepts in a fun, interactive learning environment and will be instructed by a registered Social Worker with a Masters Degree in Play Therapy.
