Family Champions come in all size and shapes, and since 1987 we've awarded the Distinguished Service to Families Award to an incredible diversity of people and organizations. This year, we were pleased to highlight the incredible accomplishments of Dr. Dana Brynelson, and the important work of the F.O.R.C.E. Society for Kids' Mental Health.
Do you know of someone who has made a real difference for families in BC this year? 
Maybe it's a devoted volunteer in your hometown -- someone whose efforts have made your community a friendlier, more welcoming place for children and families. Maybe it's a public figure who has brought our attention to important issues and challenges facing families. Maybe it's an organization or agency who has been working diligently to solve some of those challenges.
There are great people working hard for families all across this province. Now's your chance to honour them for it. Nominate a family champion for the BC Council's Distinguished Service to Families Award.

Over the past few months, we've received a number of calls and emails from Nobody's Perfect facilitators and program managers right across the province. And whether you're in Powell River or Princeton, the challenges some programs are facing are pretty similar. You've been telling us about well-established programs that are threatened by shortfalls in funding, about agencies that are no longer able to support Nobody's Perfect programs, despite growing needs in the communities you serve.
