    Our Approach

    The F-words emphasize your child's strengths, interests and your family's values. They remind us to focus on what children CAN do.

    They highlight the importance of all the elements of a child's health and well-being, including social relationships and meaningful participation at home, in school, childcare and in the community.

     

    Based on research & built on the World Health Organization's International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health Framework. www.canchild.ca/f-words
    • Kids live & thrive with their families
    • The family is the expert on the child
    • What activities do you want to do together?
    • How can our team help your child participate fully in those experiences?
    • Fun is an essential part of childhood
    • What activities does your child enjoy most?
    • What activities would your child like to try?
    • Building supportive friendships & positive social relationships are important for all children
    • Talk about the social connections in your child's life so our team can help you grow those relationships
    • Function = the ability to do an activity with or without support
    • Do activities without focusing on the outcome
    • Talk about how your child plays and functions in daily life
    • Health is related to staying physically & mentally fit
    • What makes it easy or hard for your child to become and stay active & healthy?
    • Child development = keeping your child's future in view
    • What are your family and child's dreams?
    • What are your expectations about the future?
