**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 address the mental health, family conflict, or violence, and parenting challenges that families face. 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.

We are grounded in and informed by the real needs of our clients and families, the complex environments they live in, and a foundation of clinical and mental health expertise. From mothercare during the influenza epidemic of 1917, to supporting soldiers and their families through post-WWII reintegration, to addressing the psychosocial needs of people living with HIV and their families, to redesigning family therapy to reflect the evolving definition of “family”—FSO-SFO continues to innovate and evolve in response to the changing needs of families, leading and convening best and promising practices. Most importantly, 98% of our clients report that working with FSO-SFO has had a positive impact on their lives.

An accredited non-profit charitable organization, FSO-SFO is a trusted pillar of the Ottawa community, powered by a team committed to accountability, a sense of community, well-being, diversity and inclusiveness, and client-centered care.
