About This Program

As you may know, a province-wide teachers’ strike is scheduled to begin on October 6. While we pray for a resolution that supports teachers, families, and students, we also want to provide practical support for parents during this time.

Our church will be offering a short-term child care program to provide a safe, caring environment for kids while parents navigate the strike. The program is designed to help families—especially single parents and those with fewer resources—by providing stability, fun activities, and study time for children.
