On September 12, the Child and Family All Nations Coordinated Response Network (ANCR) hosted an open house to give members of the public a chance to see their new Resource Centre first-hand. The new centre at 1008 Wall Street, which replaces their Marion Street location, features more meeting, programming and office space.
ANCR is generally the first point of contact with the Child and Family Services system. The new Resource Centre, which opened its doors earlier in June, is geared towards prevention and helping families deal with challenges in their lives. The centre will be home to many ANCR programs, including The General Parenting and Family Harmony Program, the Positive Parenting Program, and Parent Respite to name a few.
