About this service
The Stepping Out on Saturdays Manitoba (SOS) program is a day respite camp for children with an FASD diagnosis. It is funded by Manitoba Family Services (Healthy Child). This program is for children between ages 5 12 who have a diagnosis within the FASD spectrum or suspected FASD with confirmation of prenatal alcohol exposure, who are in care or involved with child welfare. The program is offered throughout Manitoba and is for 24 months. In Winnipeg, a usual wait time to join the program is 6 12 months.
The program gives children a fun and safe way to learn and practice social skills and learn about self-regulation. An occupational therapist runs the SOS MB program. They plan the camp activities, and are available to help families outside of the program day. Trained staff and a low child to staff ratio will be key to a successful day. A plan to support each childs unique needs will be made during the intake process.
