The Board of Governors of North Eastern Ontario Family and Children’s Services (NEOFACS) would like to wish all a very happy and safe holiday season!

As another year draws to a close most of you will be in the midst of preparations for this festive season. This is a special time of the year when we can pause and reflect on our accomplishments over the past 12 months.

2022 has been an exciting year for the Agency with the launch of our new Strategic Plan that will guide our collective work until 2027. This year also marks the milestone of our 10th anniversary! We have much to celebrate as we look back at the successes we have made as an organization over the past decade.

This is also the time of year to reflect on the special moments and cherish the memories created and the relationships cultivated over the past year.

We want to acknowledge and thank everyone for their hard work and attentiveness to ensuring the safety and well-being of the children, youth, and families we serve, along with our staff and communities, as we continue to adapt to the impacts of the pandemic and other challenges.

We extend best wishes to all of you. We hope this holiday season is an exceptionally good and safe one and that the New Year brings you much health, happiness and prosperity!
