Family & Children’s Services of St. Thomas and Elgin (FACS) is a moderate sized, progressive Child Welfare Society, developing innovative programming, and located in beautiful Elgin County.

We are a not-for-profit social service agency licensed by the Province of Ontario to provide child protection services in a community of over 80,000 people in Southwestern Ontario. Nestled on the north shore of Lake Erie, Elgin County is a mixture of small town, rural and vacation communities, but we are close enough to enjoy the bright lights of Toronto and London, Ontario, or Detroit Michigan.

Family and Children’s Services of St. Thomas and Elgin strives in all instances to offer our services according to principles of genuine support and collaboration and we do so by measuring ourselves against our Strategic Benchmarks of Leading the Way, Journeying Together, Doing the Right Thing and Walking Along Side.

In keeping with the organization’s values, FACS is committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive environment that is free from oppression, prejudice, discrimination and harassment.
