WELCOME
Fernie Women’s Resource Centre is happy to be a welcoming space and provide a variety of services to this community. Please explore our services and programs to find ways we can assist you.
Counselling
Would you like support to feel less overwhelmed or process traumatic experiences? Our counselling programs support women, trans women, and non-binary folks who have experienced abuse, violence, or trauma and all genders who have experienced any form of sexual assault or abuse.
Outreach
If you’ve ever faced abuse, you know it can be stressful and even traumatic. The outreach program is here to help women, including trans and non-binary people, so you don’t have to go through these tough times alone. We’re here to give you one-on-one support.
Parent Support
Parent-Tot Funtimes is a drop-in program for families with kids aged 0 to 6. We have fun activities with toys, songs and stories, and a craft or activity! Also check out our Family Connections programs, including the My Baby and Me music group and Parent Connections Program. Bellies to Babies is a unique program for expecting and new parents.
Early Years
The Fernie Early Years team is a group of service providers and community members. They meet once a month to share info, spot what the community needs, and work to make sure families get the best early years services. Jaffray preschool offers a wide range of activities for 3- and 4-year-olds including games, songs, crafts, and more.
