About Radiance Family Services

Radiance Family Services is a charitable organization bringing hope and healing to families in need for more than 40 years. We envision a community where women and children live safely in healthy families. We are a multi-service organization:

The Radiance Centre

The Radiance Centre is a residential shelter serving women and children fleeing family violence and abuse. The Centre is an integral part of Calgary’s collaborative response to domestic violence, housing women with and without children who are at a high risk for serious injury or fatality. With 24 units, the Radiance Centre provides an eighteen-month program that supports clients in navigating the practical and emotional complexities of leaving an abusive home, including a six-month follow-up to support clients in their safe transition back into the community.

Radiance Children's Centre

The Children’s Centre is the first licensed full-time children’s centre of its kind in Canada. It meets the unique needs of children who have experienced domestic violence or other forms of emotional trauma. The program recognizes that children exposed to family violence are more vulnerable than their peers to social, emotional, psychological and cognitive development problems. For those children, the focus is to prevent the cycle of violence from continuing by intervening early in the child’s development.

Community Outreach

We are dedicated to providing comprehensive support and services to families impacted by violence, offering a lifeline for those seeking healing and empowerment. Our unwavering commitment revolves around breaking the cycle of abuse, fostering healthy families, and nurturing stronger, more resilient communities.

Since 1985, Radiance Day Homes agency has gone above and beyond to ensure trustworthy, quality, well-rounded childcare. Our home-based programs are inclusive, regulated, safe, and caring.
