Who is CCMF?

The Canadian Centre for Men and Families is a mental health and social service hub delivering programs and services for boys, men, fathers and their families. Our vision focuses on three critical areas:
1. Reduce suicide among men at high-risk through intervention programs that confront the barriers that men face.
2. Empower fathers undergoing separation and divorce through legal clinics and fathering groups that strengthen the father-child relationship, while working to promote positive social attitudes toward fatherhood
3. Support men who are experiencing domestic abuse and work with other agencies to improve services for boys and men.
In addition to delivering front-line programs and services to families in crisis, we undertake evidence-based research, host public education and awareness activities, and work to improve public policies to better support all Canadians.

Daughter & Father

Canada Child Benefit

Did you know a low income single father can only access child benefits with approval from a female partner? The Government of Canada presumes, in the very article of the law, that fathers are secondary parents. Let's end gender discrimination in the Income Tax Act. 

Look Behind the Mask

75% of suicides are Men. 100% of suicides are preventable. Even in the best of times, men often suffer from a lack of strong social networks. During a pandemic, social isolation can be a killer for men. Learn the warning signs and how to intervene effectively.

International Men and Families Conferences

We co-organize the annual International Men and Families Conference, featuring 40+ presenters from 20+ countries, focusing on father involvement, parental alienation, false allegations, male identity, suicide and mental health, family violence and the needs of boys.

Healthy Fathers.
Healthy Families

Both scholarly research and the lived experiences of our clients agree. Healthy and involved fathers make for healthy and strong children and families. Join us for a week of exciting events every third week in June!

Testimonials

“CCMF has been an absolute life saver. Finally, to have found a guiding light in a dismal, seemingly endless tunnel of dark turmoil. Thank you to all staff and volunteers. I would be in a much worse spot and condition without your help and compassion.”

“The support from CCMF was of great relief to me at a time when isolation during COVID19 lockdowns and emotional issues with family was affecting my mental health severely. I was experiencing insomnia and anxiety but my therapist suggested activities and supported me to feel better.”

“The value to self-esteem, men supporting men, can’t be understated. CCMF provides a great platform to achieve this.”

“This is the only service I saw in my life which helps and supports men for recovery. Thank you so much for your brilliant service and help.”

“I was in a negative situation with my spouse and I had nowhere to turn. I was fortunate in my research online and I found the center of men and families and only they were able to help me in my time of need. Several other local help agencies were not there for me. I am thankful that I reached out to the men’s center.”

“Parental alienation devastates families. I’ve spoken to young fathers who were suicidal. There’s not much support, other than the Canadian Centre for Men and Families, for fathers who are alienated and trying to rebuild relationships with their kids.”

“The  underachievement of boys in the education system is a really serious issue faced by parents, teachers and all of society. “
Dr. James S. Brown, MA, MEd EdD - Author of: 
Rescuing our Underachieving Sons
 
"Boys are falling behind in education, mental health, and a sense of purpose—creating a crisis that affects families, communities, and the future of our society."
Dr. Warren Farrel, Author of:  The Boy Crisis,

“In discussing gender differences in education, it's crucial to consider the interaction of biology, culture, and education systems, recognizing that these differences are not immutable but can change with societal evolution and educational reforms. Moreover, the conversation must be sensitive to the diversity within each gender, acknowledging that individual experiences can significantly vary from these broad trends”. 
Christina Hoff Sommers - Author of: The War on Boys

As we look around, it’s clear that boys are facing significant challenges in today’s society—especially in education, mental health, and relationships. Boys are increasingly falling behind in school, and a growing disparity between boys and girls is becoming more evident.
Historically, when girls faced barriers to success, society took proactive steps to level the playing field, helping them thrive. Now, boys are disengaging from education, social connections, and in some cases, even life itself. It’s time to adjust our approach, inspire our boys, and help them unlock their full potential. It’s time for us to shift our focus and create an environment where boys can succeed just as girls do today.

Data from the past decade shows alarming trends with boys: lower literacy scores,  higher school dropout rates, increased depression, disengagement, lower post-secondary attendance, and rising unemployment along with substance abuse among young men. This lack of participation in society can often lead to depression and, tragically, suicide. A healthy society depends on healthy fathers, healthy sons, and healthy communities.

We need to inspire and support our boys today to ensure a better future for everyone. We envision a future where every boy is equipped to succeed academically, emotionally, and socially. By inspiring our boys now, we create a generation of leaders, innovators, and role models who will drive a brighter, more equitable future for all.

Let’s take action today—when our boys succeed, life improves for everyone.

CCMF 10 Year Anniversary Celebration

Canadian Centre for Men and Families April 17, 2025 11:14 am

On November 19, 2024, International Men's Day, the Canadian Centre for Men and Families opened Alberta's first interim house for fathers and children in crisis, with an emphasis on fathers and children escaping domestic abuse and family violence. 

This 11 unit building with capacity for up to 44 individuals, combines emergency shelter and longer term transitional housing, for stays of 31 to 90 days. Residents are offered a full suite of wrap-around services, including outreach, counselling, peer support, trauma recovery, personal coaching, legal advice and parenting support programs. 

This isn’t just a building. It’s a lifeline. A second chance for fathers fighting to keep their children. A refuge for men who’ve faced unimaginable challenges and turmoil. A beacon of hope for families torn apart by hardship.

💙 June is Men’s Health Month—A healthy mind fuels a full life.

Checking in with your thoughts and feelings isn’t a weakness—it’s self-respect. This week, give your mental and emotional health some care:
✨ Go for a walk
✨ Call someone who lifts you up
✨ Say something kind to yourself
✨ Take five quiet minutes just for you

There’s real power in feeling good and being open about what you need.

You deserve that. Because your health is priority.

This Seniors Week, we honour the older men in our communities — the fathers, grandfathers, uncles, mentors and friends.

We recognize that aging can come with its own set of challenges for men—loneliness, loss and a lack of support systems. That’s why we’re committed to building spaces where men of all ages feel seen, heard and supported.

Because supporting men means supporting them at every stage of life. Visit our website: https://ccmfalberta.ca/

This Seniors Week, we honour the older men in our communities — the fathers, grandfathers, uncles, mentors and friends.

We recognize that aging can come with its own set of challenges for men—loneliness, loss and a lack of support systems. That’s why we’re committed to building spaces where men of all ages feel seen, heard and supported.
