Family and Community Support Services (FCSS) is a Municipal/Provincial cost-shared program. Breton and Area FCSS provides services to residents living in the Village of Breton or the eastern portion of Brazeau County (east of the North Saskatchewan River).
Through FCSS, many services, activities and programs are made available. These services are provided with the intention of promoting and enhancing family and community life. Volunteerism and prevention are emphasized, and FCSS helps the community help itself. Services and programs are varied, depending on the need.
Information and referrals is an important role for FCSS. Anyone who needs information, referrals or support on social, community or personal issues, may contact the FCSS office. Although counseling is not available through our local office, the coordinator can provide information and assistance on obtaining counseling. Confidentiality is protected.
