As routines begin to shift, it can be a good time to check in with yourself and your family.

Changes in schedules, responsibilities, and daily routines can bring new stressors, but they can also be an opportunity to reset and reconnect.

Taking care of your mental and emotional well-being starts with noticing what you need.

If you need extra support, FSO’s counselling and programs are here for you.

Grab your favourite people and clear November 20th. 🎶

Music on a Mission is the kind of night where you come dressed as your favourite band, argue over the answer to a one-hit-wonder question, and end up laughing with people you didn't even come with. It's a genuinely great time, food, drinks, live and silent auctions, and a room full of people who showed up to have fun.

And while you're at it, your table helps fund counselling for Ottawa families who need it most.

Teams of 10 start at $1,000...come see for yourself what the fuss is all about.
