Family Parenting Place

Family Parenting Place (FPP) invites families with children aged 0-6 to a range of fun, enriching, educational activities. The goals and objectives of FPP are:

  • To coordinate programs for young children that meet community needs.
  • To advocate for, develop and provide a comprehensive range of social, educational, preventative and health programs that enhance and enrich the wellbeing of children aged 0-6.
  • To promote the health and development of families, thereby enriching our communities.
  • To teach nutritional skills including baking, cooking on a budget, canning and preparing baby food.

The programs are funded through the Ministry of Children and Family Development, Fraser Health, and the Public Health Agency of Canada’s Community Action Plan for Children (CAPC) and their Canadian Prenatal Nutrition Program (CPNP) along with other community grants as they become available.

See the FPP calendar as well as the latest updates to the program on the Agassiz-Harrison Family Parenting Place Facebook page.
