**ABOUT US**

Family Services à la famille Ottawa (FSO-SFO) has been strengthening individuals and families—and, by extension, the Ottawa community—since 1914. We provide skillful and compassionate support to help people navigate mental health concerns, parenting challenges, and family conflict or violence. Through accessible counselling, support groups, and educational programs, families increase their knowledge and skills, adopt healthy strategies, build meaningful connections, and enhance resilience. We serve individuals across the lifespan and within all types of family constellations, including children, youth, transitional-aged youth, adults, seniors, couples, and families. Our work is grounded in the real needs of clients, the complex environments they live in, and a strong foundation of clinical and mental health expertise.

From Mothercare during the influenza epidemic of 1917, to supporting families during post-WWII reintegration, to redefining family therapy to reflect the diverse realities of “family”—FSO-SFO continues to innovate and evolve in response to the changing needs of our community.

We strive to utilize the best and promising practices, ensuring our services remain relevant and impactful. Today, 98% of clients report that working with FSO-SFO has had a positive impact on their lives.

As an accredited non-profit charitable organization, FSO-SFO is a trusted pillar of the Ottawa community. Our team is united by a commitment to well-being, belonging, community, accountability, and client-centered care. Join us in making a lasting difference for Ottawa families.
