Westcoast Family Centres contribute to the healthy development of children by providing services to strengthen the relationship between children and families and between families and their communities.

Free groups are offered to help strengthen existing parenting skills, to meet the developmental needs of children, and to enhance interpersonal skills related to problem solving, communication, conflict resolution and self-determination.

Their centre on the North Shore provides intensive, in-home parent support and education programs to families and children (aged 0–18) in that community.
