Family Support Team

The Family Support team provides culturally grounded, family-centred support to Inuit children, youth, and families in Ottawa. Through advocacy, system navigation, referrals, crisis intervention, parenting support, and direct family assistance, the program helps families overcome barriers and access the services they need while promoting wellness, safety, and family stability. The program also offers community-based programming, peer support, family activities, and cultural opportunities that strengthen connections to Inuit culture, community, and one another. Using a holistic and trauma-informed approach, the Family Support Program empowers families, builds resilience, and supports healthy outcomes for Inuit children and families.
