About
Family and Community Support Services is: a partnership between the Province of Alberta and municipalities or Metis Settlements; an agreement under which locally-driven preventive social services and programs may be developed to enhance the well-being of individuals, families and communities; a funding arrangement through which the province provides funding for community initiatives - the province contributes 80% of the predetermined funding level and municipalities and Métis Settlements must contribute an additional 20%; a continually evolving program that encourages communities to strengthen themselves, based on the philosophy that people can influence things that affect them; communities can be innovative and creative; citizen participation, self-help and volunteerism should be encouraged; human growth and potential can be enhanced with appropriate community supports provided at the earliest opportunity.
