Home Support Services is a resident assistance program that provides eligible residents with light housekeeping services to maintain their independence and remain in their homes. 

The Home Support Program provides general homemaking, such as: vacuuming, dusting, washing floors, laundry, spring and fall cleaning. Eligible ratepayers may include new parents, up to eight (8) weeks postpartum, seniors, the disabled, or those who may require some extra help while recovering from a surgery, treatment or hospital stay. Referrals can come from family members, friends, doctors, or themselves. A fee based on income is charged per hour and invoiced monthly.

For more information on Home Support Services in the County, please contact the FCSS Community Program Coordinator by email or phone 780-352-3321 ext.2292

In 2023, Council approved the final draft of the Social Needs Assessment Report.  The recommendations provided will help guide FCSS programming.  

The purpose of this project was to determine the preventative social needs of the residents of the County and the level to which their needs are presently being met.  The team from Moorehouse & Associations Consulting Inc. conducted in-depth interviews, hosted a working session with key agencies and community organizations and resident surveys for both adults and youth.  The recommendations from the report will be reviewed by Council during Strategic Planning.  

The Community Grant Program provides funding to local organizations that offer programs which are intended to promote and develop a safe and healthy community through preventative measures.
