Children 0 to 18

Leduc County provides support and services to families with children under the age of 18. Whether you're looking for in-home parenting support, help finding a childcare provider or financial resources to assist with childcare costs, Leduc County has a service for you. 

Family Resource Network (FRN)

The Family Resource Network (FRN) provides supports and services under the Ministry of Children’s Services through the Family and Community Resiliency Division.

Leduc County Family and Community Support Services (FCSS) is a provincial Family Resource Network (FRN) hub. Family Resource Networks deliver high-quality prevention and early intervention services and supports for children aged 0 to 18.

Programming focuses on three core areas: child development and well-being supports, caregiver capacity building supports and social connections supports. These supports will center on strengthening parent and caregiver knowledge, coping and problem-solving skills, access to community resources, improving child and youth development, building resiliency and fostering well-being.

Supports offered through Leduc County’s FRN are available to residents in Leduc County, Beaumont, Devon, Calmar, Thorsby and Warburg.
