The wide range of services WFS is proud to provide to the New Brunswick area
We put together a home to accommodate a single youth or sibling group. Staffed 24/7 by our highly trained Youth Support worker team, the entire home is built from the ground up around the specific needs of the youth.
Mentoring for children and youth in the community. Our mentors are positive role-models who create a supportive and healthy relationship that provides each youth with knowledge to develop and achieve success in a variety of areas.
Parents or caregivers of children with health conditions, disabilities or care needs associated with trauma or mental health, need a break sometimes. We can help by providing a Family Support Worker to care for their child while they are away.
Here at Wolastoqiyik Family Services we take staff training very seriously. We are always looking for new opportunities to grow and learn so that we can better serve clients and communities. In our Alternative Homes we can even set up a custom training regime to meet the specific needs of your client. Here is a list of some of the training's and accreditation's you can expect our staff to have.
"I have been blown away by the services that WFS provides my clients. Most of the companies in the Fredericton region do good work with our clients, but WFS goes above and beyond for the children and families they work with. They treat their staff well, which in turn leads to better care of clients. They are quick to respond, communicate well, and are always quick to please. If you are in need of services and you want to make sure your client gets excellent care, go with WFS."
"My experience working within this company has helped me grow as a human being and a support worker. Management care about the people working with them and there is an open-door policy which is encouraged to deal with any issues that might arise."
"I have been in this field for almost 6 years now and have learned that it takes some very special people to do the work that the WFS staff teams are doing with the youth in their care."
"It’s comforting to know my place of work is a safe learning space where I am given the opportunity and tools to grow with each experience that arises. WFS has been an influential part of my journey, shaping me into the person I am today while guiding me to further my knowledge in the pursuit of education. WFS represents genuine care by embedding heart, mind and spirit into the work place, creating a safe space for team members and individuals we care for. It is a true honour and inspiration to be apart of the WFS team."
