WHO WE ARE

Pathways Family Services

Our agency has been providing quality foster care to children since mid-1970 through our knowledgeable and highly skilled foster parents.

Although primarily serving the greater Edmonton area, through Edmonton Region Child and Family Services, Pathways provides care to children from across Alberta.

As a foster care agency, we endeavour to provide each child placed in our care a sense of safety, stability, and family belonging. We strive to foster within each child recognition as a valued member of society by providing stability, family based developmental opportunities and connections to community resources that will build self-worth to last a lifetime.
