Vicki
Hi All,
I'm the "new kid on the block", the new Executive Director. I recently joined Steinbach Family Resource Centre in 2012 and so far it's been a blast! My passion is simple, my mission is clear.... I believe in H.O.P.E (helping other people excel). I describe myself as a community-minded social justice warrior. I advocate for families and for all people regardless of their socio-economic status. I enjoy challenging the status quo, opening closed doors and helping people. I choose to make a difference.
I wear many hats but the one I enjoy the most is the one my kids have given me, the "mommy" hat. It's the best title I could ever hope for. I am married with 2 small children and have the privilege of all the pleasures and frustrations that come with raising a family in these times. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE BEING A PARENT!
I am so excited about being at Steinbach Family Resource Centre. I am looking forward to new and innovative ways to help all families in our community. I have a fantastic staff team that are passionate about helping people! Take some time and come on by, I would really like to give you a tour of our facility and show you all that we do.
Everyday, Steinbach Family Resource Centre is making a difference in people's live and we do so because we believe that EVERY FAMILY COUNTS!
See you soon.

Andrea
I am Andrea, the Early Childhood and Family Educator at Steinbach Family Resource Centre. I am also a wife and mother to three teens. I have cared for and taught children from infant to senior high and while I have enjoyed all these age groups, I find I am most drawn to young children.
Their joy and exuberance as they play and discover the world is a pleasure for me to watch and participate in. Steinbach Family Resource Centre provides children and their parents with a place where they can feel safe, stimulated and validated; where they can learn new skills, have fun and bond with each other. I look forward to meeting you!

Hello!
I'm Ruth. I am a Pre and Postnatal Family Outreach worker here. It thrills me to be a part of a team that is intentional about serving families and seeing them flourish. My greatest and most fulfilling adventure has been parenting our three children. I understand the changes and challenges that happen when a precious little baby enters your world. We speak to that here, whether it's in our group sessions or one on one. Every day and every person is special in this place. It's my joy to help you in any way I can. Come on down! I'd love to meet you.

Board of directors
While many of the "founders" of Steinbach Family Resource Centre have moved on, our current volunteer Board of Directors is made up of committed men and women who represent the community that we serve. We are fortunate to have community members who give time and resources to make our centre the best it can be. They meet monthly to discuss strategic planning, program development, emerging community needs and centre finances. Board members represent Steinbach Family Resource Centre at community events and provide support and guidance to the staff at the centre. If you are interested in becoming a board member please contact us.
