Family Services
Whether you are going through a difficult time as a parent, are searching for support and resources, or simply want to meet other families to connect with, our Family Services are available year-round and include programming for kids 0-5 years. Our Family Resource and Outreach workers provide support to families in Sutton and Abercorn and are on hand to listen, answer your questions, or refer you to resources and programs that meet your needs.

She is also available to listen and refer you to a wide range of resources and programs based on your needs.

Homework Assistance
Through this intergenerational program, over a dozen volunteers offer individualized Homework Assistance to 10-15 students at the Sutton School on a weekly basis. Teachers and parents note the beneficial impacts of the program on students’ learning outcomes. Each week, students also receive a healthy snack to help them stay focused while they learn.
"Opération septembre" by Centraide
Each Fall, in partnership with Centraide, the CAB offers back-to-school support to families at the Sutton School. We work closely with the school to focus on the specific needs of the students and families that need it most.
