The Parent Support Services Society has been funded by the Ministry of Children and Family Development to operate a province-wide support line for grandparents and other relatives who are raising children full-time in their homes in BC.
The service is called the Grandparents Raising Grandchildren (GRG) support line but it is equally a resource for other relatives (aunts, older siblings) and family friends raising children as their own.
Contact information is:
Call 604 558-4740 (Lower Mainland) or 1 855 474-9777 (toll free from anywhere in B.C.), or email GRGline [at] parentsupportbc [dot] ca
The new help line will operate province-wide Monday-Friday.
