Communities
CCMF Alberta supports men struggling with relationship distress, parental alienation, family law matters, or mental health challenges across Alberta. Our programs and services are offered virtually so that our support is accessible across the province.
Programs
CCMF Alberta programs are designed to emphasize and honor men's unique experiences during relationship distress, mental health struggle, and hardships. We offer a suite of programs that include buddy-coaching, professional counselling, Nexus domestic abuse and trauma recovery program, legal information and resources, men's peer support, Fueling Fathers to mindfulness based stress reduction.
Donate
Becoming a donor offers more than just a financial contribution. You become part of a growing community of people who believe that men deserve a chance to be heard, understood, and live to their potential as healthy individuals, better fathers, and more engaged partners.
One of the only service providers of its kind, CCMF Alberta has its first centre for men open in Calgary.
In response to COVID-19 public health recommendations, CCMF Alberta’s in-person programs are all being offered online.
Our seamless transition to this delivery model has removed geographical barriers and allows access to our programs Alberta-wide. We are committed to offering accessible services across the province and will continue in a virtual environment.
Programs
We hear you and we have your back.
CCMF Alberta programs are informed by evidence and through listening to our clients. New programs are continually developed and reflect common issues that men and their families share.
Fueling Fathers
Fueling Fathers helps single dads in Alberta boost their capacity, confidence, and mental health hygiene so they can be the best dads for their children.
Buddy-Coach
CCMF Alberta Buddy-Coaches hold space for you to have open and real conversations. During trying times, a Buddy-Coach has your back.
Counselling Program
CCMF Alberta counsellors provide personalized, one-on-one attention to clients dealing with individual or family issues, depression, or anxiety. They have been selected to join our team because of their interest in men’s mental health and sensitivity to the uniqueness of the male experience, particularly during intimate relationship breakdown.
Nexus Domestic Abuse Recovery Program
CCMF Alberta understands that abuse often has a unique look for men. If you've said to yourself, "this just doesn't feel right" or have friends or family been concerned about things you've told them...then let's talk.
I’m so thankful to the CCMF for giving me and my husband the support as we went through family court. They helped us end up with a fair and equal outcome that is best for our amazing children.Halina
Parental alienation devastates families. I’ve spoken to young fathers who were suicidal. There’s not much support, other than the Canadian Centre for Men and Families, for fathers who are alienated and trying to rebuild relationships with their kids.George
Over the years I had grown a lot of resentment and that resentment turned against the world, to the point where it was affecting my work, my health and everybody around me. I had to change my life around. Since I’ve been coming to the Centre I’ve opened bonds with my father. I never thought we would reconcile but recently he hugged me for the first time. If I had not gotten help from the CCMF I don’t know where I’d be today.Dorian
