Individual Development Account (IDA) Program
An Individual Development Account (IDA) is a matched-savings program that enables low-income adults/families to save money for the purchase of a home, post-secondary education or training or to start a business. Participants in the program learn principles in financial saving so that they can develop a personal savings plan. The program matches each participant’s savings on a 3:1 ratio.
Family Visitation Center
Services include monitored child-custody exchanges and supervised visitation, both of which can encourage healthy parent-child relationships, while ensuring the safety of the parents and their children. These services are offered when family court has ordered that a parent have his/her visits monitored by an independent party. This service allows non-custodial parents to maintain routine contact with their children and eliminates the potential for allegations of improper interactions during the visits.
