Canadian Society for Information Children

The Canadian Society for Information Children is a Canadian nonprofit organization and registered charity established in 1979. Founded by Dr. Jean Koepke, the organization is dedicated to supporting the care and well-being of families with children aged 12 years and under. Its mission centers on providing parents and caregivers with information, guidance, referrals, and support to promote healthy child development and effective parenting practices.

The society operates a helpline staffed by Parent Coach-Educators who offer personalized coaching and respond to various parenting concerns related to early childhood. When inquiries fall outside their expertise, the organization connects families with appropriate community organizations and resources. The support services aim to assist parents in navigating the challenges of raising young children through accessible, informed, and compassionate assistance.

Over its decades of service, the Canadian Society for Information Children has contributed significantly to early years parenting support in Canada, offering direct help and fostering connections between families and community resources. The organization’s approach combines evidence-based information and empathetic coaching, promoting positive outcomes for children and families.

As a registered charity, the Canadian Society for Information Children exemplifies a commitment to healthy child development through its extensive community engagement and educational efforts. Its longstanding presence since 1979 marks it as a key player in the Canadian nonprofit sector dedicated to childhood and family welfare[1][2][3][4].
