CFEC

A New Beginning: Learn how CFEC is helping a large group of Syrian refugees become accustomed to life in Vancouver... Parents come to CFEC for a variety of reasons. Many are looking for programs that offer one-stop educational support for their family - programs that include early learning opportunities for their children and English language and/or high school completion for themselves through South Hill Education Centre (SD39) or Burnaby Community & Continuing Education (SD41). Our programs are accessible (barrier-free, with a convenient location and time), inviting (a comfortable space with welcoming staff and fellow parents to connect with), and safe (where mutual respect is practiced)... CFEC also conducts on-going research. Beginning in 2005 we undertook a 3-year research project to look at the impact our Partners In Education (PIE) program had on the parents and service providers we work with (results can be read here).
