FAMILY HELP SERVICE

The Family Help Program has been designed to help families learn to deal with common childhood problems in the comfort and privacy of their home. It provides up-to-date care that helps parents and children learn to deal with common childhood problems. The goal is to recognize and treat signs early to prevent the problem from getting worse.

Education and treatment is provided through telephone contact with trained coaches, written manuals, videotapes, and audiotapes. The Program schedules appointment times at the convenience of the families in the comfort and privacy of their homes.

Please call 1-866-470-7111 (toll free) or email us at family.help.info@dal.ca for information on any of our programs.
