The Family Advisory Committee
The RMCDC Family Advisory Committee (FAC) consists of family members of children who currently receive or formerly received services from RMCDC. All FAC members are members of the Ridge Meadows Child Development Centre Society and currently reside on Maple Ridge or Pitt Meadows. The Family Advisory Committee (FAC) has input and influence on policies, programs, and practices at the Centre. Members participate in various activities, including: program evaluation, sitting on hiring committees, reviewing written and audiovisual materials, participating in task forces, reviewing grant proposals, co-facilitating staff training sessions, developing parent programs, and advocating for services for families.

RMCDC provides support to FAC members by making available a consistent staff liaison member and by providing: training and educational opportunities; secretarial support; reimbursement for child care, mileage, and related expenses; and easy access to information the committee will need to perform its duties.

Members must have children who receive or have received services from the Centre and must reside in Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows. If you might be interested or if you know someone who you think would be a valuable member of the committee, please contact a Family Support Worker, at 604-463-0881 (local 316), or info@rmcdc.com.

The Community Advisory Committee
The RMCDC Community Advisory Committee (CAC) is made up of RMCDC staff members as well as community members.
