The AFCC-O Membership Committee promotes Community Programs to facilitate networking and learning in innovative ways. The purpose of these programs is to provide local communities with a creative way to network and learn with colleagues in a fresh and informative manner. Addressing a wide array of topics, we extend an invitation to host an event for AFCC Ontario members and other family justice professionals in your community. Participation is stress free and easy. All you have to do is contact AFCC-O with your interest in hosting an event, and we’ll work with you to take care of the smallest of details. We are able to provide a subsidy and printed resource materials.
For more information on current programs or to host an event contact us at: info@afccontario.ca
AFCC-O Community Programs currently available:
  1.  Adult Children of Divorce Have Their Say
A DVD program which provides the unique opportunity to hear, first-hand, from adult children of divorce about the impact their parents’ separation had on their lives, from childhood through to marriage and parenthood is now available. We explore what happens to the children of divorce when the file is closed, and the family moves on to transition and rebuild. What really transpires in these new family dynamics and how it affects children’s perspectives on their own relationships?

  1. How to Build a Thriving Practice, Prevent Complaints and Feel Rewarded
Learn from our panel of seasoned professionals on how to screen potential new clients early, establish the rules, boundaries and expectations at the outset and in the retainer agreement, prevent, prepare for and manage formal complaints and build a thriving practice by maximizing profit and minimizing client dissatisfaction.

  1. AFCC-O Board Member Involvement in Local Educational Events

If your organization is planning a program for your community of professionals, you might consider inviting the AFCC-O to participate in your event.
