Canadian Centre for Men and Families - British Columbia

Canadian Centre for Men and Families facilities are mental health and social service hubs that provide a wide variety of front-line programs and services in their communities.

Healthy Boys, Men, Families, Communities.
The Canadian Centre for Men and Families is British Columbia’s hub for boys, men, fathers and families. We proactively foster healthy boys and men by filling critical gaps in men’s services that reduce male suicide, empower fathers undergoing separation and divorce, and help boys and men heal from trauma. We support, empower and advocate for men before, during and after a crisis, in a safe, open, inclusive and supportive environment.

We are thrilled to announce a major expansion of our Canadian Centre for Men and Families British Columbia branch.

Our commitment to supporting fathers and families grows with a range of valuable programs designed to provide guidance, education, and community support. We look forward to seeing you at our upcoming sessions.

MPSG – Men’s Peer Support Group
Every Tuesday from 8:00 PM – 10:00 PM
Peer support groups are composed of individuals who share a common condition or circumstance. In the case of our PSG: marital separation and divorce, intimate partner violence/abuse, parental alienation, parenting, navigating the legal system, and dealing with cultural biases against men/boys. PSGs are focused on providing mentoring, emotional and social support, information, education, and practical help to each other. The expression of mutual caring and concern provides a powerful environment for reclaiming hope, healing and building resilience.
