Our Centre, Our Community

The Estevan Family Centre started as a local non-profit supporting families in our community. In 2021, we became part of Saskatchewan’s Early Years Family Resource Centre initiative through the Ministry of Education, in partnership with the South East Cornerstone Public School Division. We are now located at 255 Spruce Drive on the west side of the high school.

We offer free, welcoming programming for children, youth, and families, creating a space where people can come together to play, connect, and grow. This includes programs and camps for children, information sessions for parents and caregivers, a Drop-In & Play space, and access to support such as referrals, community connections, and essential supplies for families in need.

Our mission is to provide a warm, safe, and inclusive environment where families feel supported through play, connection, and community. Our programming is guided by four key pillars: Parenting Education, Early Learning, Family Wellness & Support, and Information and Referrals.
