Branch
Family Shelter for Men and Children and Canadian Centre for Men and Families - Toronto
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.
Established in 2014, the Canadian Centre for Men and Families (CCMF) is Toronto’s first hub for the health and well-being of boys, men, fathers and families. The Centre is an open, inclusive and safe space, providing therapy and counselling, peer support, a legal clinic, fathering programs, mentorship and support services for male victims of trauma and violence. We provide services, research, advocacy, outreach and public education on all aspects of men’s issues.
No one’s invincible. It’s time he has a place for him and the people in his life.
The Canadian Centre for Men and Families will catalyze a fundamental change in society’s attitude towards boys and men. We will confront that which impedes men from getting help and work with the community to respond to unmet needs. We will create a better future for our sons and daughters through mutual understanding, compassion and support.
