FSCD SUPPORT
Family Support for Children with Disabilities (FSCD) is an Alberta government program that provides funding and services to support families raising children and youth under the age of 18 with developmental, physical, sensory, emotional, or neurological needs.
Care Wellness will work collaboratively with families and FSCD caseworkers to provide approved therapeutic and family-centred supports once funding and service authorization are in place. Services will be individualized and aligned with each child’s FSCD service plan, with a focus on emotional regulation, functional skill development, and strengthening caregiver capacity within home and community settings.
Our team will support families in understanding available service options and navigating next steps following FSCD approval. Care Wellness is committed to offering responsive communication, clear documentation, and relationship-based support that promotes continuity of care and meaningful outcomes for children and families.
DAY PROGRAM
Care Wellness day programming offers structured, supportive daytime experiences designed to promote emotional well-being, skill development, and social connection. Programs are individualized and relationship-centred, providing a balanced mix of therapeutic support, group activities, and meaningful routines. Through engaging, developmentally appropriate programming, participants are supported in building confidence, strengthening coping and social skills, and increasing participation within their daily lives and communities.
EXTENDED-STAY SUPPORT
Care Wellness provides structured overnight accommodations designed to support stability, routine, and emotional well-being in a supportive, home-like environment. Programming emphasizes consistency, relationship-building, and individualized care, with daily routines that promote regulation, responsibility, and positive engagement. Our approach balances structure with compassion, offering a safe and supportive setting where individuals can feel secure, supported, and understood while families are reassured their loved one is receiving attentive, thoughtful care.
