Parenting teenagers can be a difficult task but gaining new strategies and talking with parents in similar situations can make it easier. Bridging the Gap is a group for parents of challenging teens. In this group, you will be able to talk about your issues, receive ideas, support, and feedback.
We are here to help you give your children a great start in life, find the balance between your traditional culture and the Canadian way of life, and meet other parents who face similar challenges.

Families are the first and best line of defense for their loved ones. They support, lead, advocate and often bear the burden of ensuring their loved ones with mental illness get the help they need. This can be lonely, taking a heavy emotional, financial, physical and mental health toll. The Families Matter Support Group is a strength-based, family-centered initiative that empowers, builds capacity, promotes resilience and reduces the need for crisis interventions.
