This is our Family Room.

After a forensic interview, counselling session, medical appointment, or court preparation meeting, children and their safe family members can come here to relax, play, and decompress.

With an interactive art installation generously created by Jody Bruce Art that rotates to reveal four unique paintings, a climbing wall, a giant bean bag chair, and activities designed to support calm and connection, this is a space where kids can simply be kids.

It’s also where we host Celebrations of Courage, special events where we honour children at important milestones on their journey to healing.

Every corner of this room is made possible by the generosity of our community. Thank you to everyone who helps create a place where healing can begin, hope can grow, and children can rediscover the joy of childhood. 💙
