Private Support and Discussion Groups
The FFCNWT has a private Facebook community. Because we must be cautious about confidentiality, the groups are CLOSED to the public. Our groups are monitored by experienced staff from our office who will be able to assist you. The only way you can access the groups is if you send a request by email to our office. We will then give you the rules and guidelines that we have for the groups and once you accept them, we will add you to the group. The next time you log on to Facebook, anything that is posted in the group will be added to your newsfeed. It's that simple!!
Head to the contact page to send us a message with your interest in joining the closed Facebook groups. Or read below for a specific group you may want to join.

Volunteers play a vital role in the every day workings of the Foster Family Coalition, and the impact that we have in our community. If you are interested in volunteering, please fill out the form below. Some of the areas in which you can volunteer include:
-Mentor for Children (mentor a child aged 5 - 11)
-Mentor for Youth (mentor a youth aged 12 - 29)
-Proposal writing (support the FFCNWT in writing funding proposals)
-Event volunteer (for events throughout the year)
If you have a special skill or expertise that would contribute to the FFCNWT, please let us know. We are always working on expanding and improving our services, and volunteers are essential in doing this.
*Please note, you must receive a criminal reference check and a child protection records check to volunteer at the FFCNWT, and we will provide you the paperwork to get these done after you reach out.
