Family Services

Our Family Services program provides crisis intervention, counselling, mediation, case conferencing and day-to-day support to youth and adults to decrease the risk of violence, abuse, exploitation, homelessness, mental health crisis, and hospitalization.

Our staff members are trained in Risk Assessment and Holistic Crisis Intervention and Planning. They can also provide you with a wide range of referrals to other community services and long term support.

“I came to Indus looking for help with my Family Court matter. I felt lost, alone and was severely depressed. My counsellor helped me get Legal Aid, connected me to housing support, and made me understand that the violence wasn’t my fault. She extended the opportunity to go to a group session. I learned I am not alone.” – K
