Boundary Family Services is a CARF Accredited agency. Our services are provided by professionally trained staff in a respectful and confidential manner.

All family services are provided FREE of charge thanks to our funders and the generous support of private donors.

Family Support Services

Services are provided to families experiencing personal difficulties, life transitions and family crises with a focus on keeping children safe. We engage and link families to the assistance that they require, provide support and teach life, safety and parenting skills.

This program provides short-term, outcome-focused assistance to families that are experiencing difficulties with parent-adolescent conflict. The focus of the program is to avoid family breakdown and to encourage positive relationships through the transition of youth from adolescence into adulthood.

Baby’s Best Chance

The Baby’s Best Chance Program provides information, resources and support to pregnant people and those parenting children under age 2.

Individual and group programming throughout the year. 

Free to all families in the Boundary from Christina Lake to Big White and Bridesville.
