Serving the Community of Hinton
The Town of Hinton offers services through its Family and Community Support Services department. We have been serving the community for decades with locally driven, prevention-based social initiatives that enhance the well-being of individuals, families, and communities. We offer a range of supports for our residents at every stage of life.
Our motto is: “People helping people help themselves!”
The Town of Hinton has been funded through the Family Resource Network to provide Caregiver Education and Capacity Building to the Hinton area. We have a part-time Caregiver Education Coordinator that will be supporting caregivers with children ages 0-18 by providing education and support to increase their capacity to create safe, responsive, and nurturing environments and encourage healthy child development as follows:
Caregiver Education: Formal and informal workshops on issues related to parenting for parents and caregivers.
Parent Support: Offering one-on-one support to caregivers to strengthen their parenting skills, increase their capacity, and strengthen their connections with their children.
Information and Referral: Provide an information portal that connects parents with programs, tools, and resources.
