National Family Week© has been celebrated since 1985 when it was proclaimed an official week by the Government of Canada. It is always the week before Thanksgiving, which is a time of family togetherness.

The Canadian Association of Family Resource Programs (FRP Canada) has generously volunteered to take the leadership role on National Family Week. The Board of Directors of Family Service Canada would like to sincerely thank them for stepping forward and building on our collective work on National Family Week. Family Service Canada will be involved through our local family service agencies.

The Board of Directors of Family Service Canada would like to thank its National Partners and acknowledge their contributions to the past successes of National Family Week. The leadership of all the partner organizations has been critical to its success. Over the years, National Family Week has been celebrated in many communities with the enthusiastic participation of a wide range of local community organizations.
