family Support Services
Nurturing Care
While most of our programs have a component of working with people in the community, we have two service areas that exclusively provide community support:
The Cridge R & R Family Services
R & R Family Services serves families raising children with complex needs by providing opportunities for community engagement, services, and rest.
The Cridge Young Parent Outreach Program
Our Young Parent Outreach Program works to support young parents as they navigate the challenges of parenthood and all the associated responsibilities of housing, budgeting, school/employment, parenting, and so much more.
We acknowledge with respect that this is the traditional territory of the Lək̓ʷəŋən -speaking peoples, known today as the Songhees First Nation, Xwsepsəm First Nation, as well as the WSÁNEĆ Nations and Sc’ianew First Nation, original caretakers of this land. As they continue walking here gently in the way of their ancestors, we seek to do the same.
We recognize that reconciliation is not only about the past, but about how we live together today. As a Christian faith-based organization, we commit to ongoing learning, listening, and acting in ways that uphold Indigenous self-determination and dignity, and reflect the biblical teachings of peace, justice, and love.
