NEW F.I.A (FAMILY AND INDIVIDUAL ADVOCATE)!

On December 1, 2010 the Glen Cairn Community Resource Centre hired a new Family and Individual Advocate. Come on in, meet Jillian and get to know how she can help you!

What can the Family and Individual Advocate do for me?

A “F.I.A.” can help with any number of things you might be experiencing such as:

- Helping you to fill out any type of paperwork you might be having a hard time with

- Connecting you to community activities and supports for you and your family both in and outside of our centre

- 1:1 Advice and Support

- Aide you in getting support around billing arrears

- In house dental and hearing clinics

- HAG Vouchers for over the counter medical needs 

- Milk Vouchers

- Support with connecting you to mental health professionals if you are struggling

- THAW/LEAP/Winter Warmth referrals

- SWIM – Single Women In Motherhood referrals

- Tax Clinics

And so much more… Feel free to contact me (Jillian) during my drop in hours (coming soon!) or make an appointment to come back and meet with me when works best for you!
