A newly designed SCALE (Supporting Caregiver Awareness, Learning and Empowerment) program is being launched this year by the Ontario Caregiver Organization (OCO). Please note, this program is not specific to FASD, but may be of benefit to parents / caregivers of people with FASD.

The SCALE Program aims to empower caregivers with practical information and skills to focus on their own mental health and well-being. Participants will receive strategies, tools, and resources to better cope with difficult caregiving emotions.

Program:

Weekly Psychoeducational Webinars & Workbooks

• You can sign up for the entire session or individual weeks, depending on your availability and/or interest.
• Watch live or recorded. All live webinars have been recorded and only registered participants will be emailed a link after the webinar.
• Download or print a weekly workbook that provides strategies, tools, resources and personal reflections based on the webinar topic.

Online Group and Individual Counselling

• Counselling is free and confidential as well as optional to register for.
• Spaces are limited, and registration is based on a first-come, first-served basis.
• To receive the maximum benefit from the group and individual counselling, it is highly encouraged to also take part in the weekly webinars.
