Family Treatment Centre
About Us
The Family Treatment Centre is a six-week program for women with addictions and their children. We are able to accept up to 8 families by continuous intake. Our goal is to help women learn the skills they need to manage addiction and prevent it from affecting their lives. We focus on the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health of each family member.
At the Family Treatment Centre, families stay together in their own private room. Each family has their own table in the dining area where they have meals together. There are also shared spaces, inside and out, for all of the families to use.
During the week, women attend group programming and family activities. Children attend school or daycare depending on their age. On weekends, families have leave passes. During leave passes, they can run errands, visit family and friends, or choose to stay at the centre.
We are staffed 24 hours a day to help families with anything that may come up.

- are ready to break the cycle of addiction in their family;
- have custody of and are actively parenting their children;
- have children between the ages 0-12 years old;
