What does our logo mean?
You may recognize the bold figure as an Inukshuk, which is from the First Nations. Our logo is derived from that symbol. The name of our logo is Kikosewin Sohkan, (kih-koh-say-win soh-kahn) Family is Strength in Cree (a First Nations dialect that is native to British Columbia) is what it means. The two larger figures are meant to symbolize two parents. They are equals and are both strong. Their outside arms join in the middle to support their child. The reason the child is in bold colour is because the focus should be on the child who thrives when supported by two strong parents. Moms and Dads each provide unique and important qualities to parenting. Neither is more important nor more influential to raising an understanding, self-confident, compassionate, strong and independent child.
About Us
Welcome to the Tri-City Men's Resource Centre.
Men have come to not expect someplace for them to go and discuss issues that would help them understand the things they have going on in their personal life. This is the place you can go to do that. The TCMRC is focused on men, you can feel comfortable discussing your topic here with us.
We know how important Dad is in children's lives. We understand that children need to maintain a healthy, nurturing relationship with both parents, free from the storm of their parent's relationship breakdown if that happens. We also believe that the children of these families will benefit immensely if their parents are able to respond to the issues at hand rather than reacting in anger and frustration. We offer a group atmosphere or one on one counselling to help men navigate through difficult times. Concentrating on safe, healthy, understanding, communication to maneuver themselves and their family under demanding situations is how we can help.
It is to this end that we offer a variety of services designed to help men cope with family breakdown, parenting, non-custodial parent issues and co-parenting from a male perspective.
