No child should wait
years for support.
Albertan families are calling to end the delays in the Family Supports for Children with Disabilities (FSCD) program—because children need support now, not years from now.

Our kids can’t wait—and Alberta can’t afford for them to.
FSCD provides early intervention and family support for children with disabilities. When children wait years for FSCD services, they miss critical windows for development.
Needs grow, families face increasing strain, and classrooms feel it too—teachers are left to manage more complex needs without the support children require. Delays shift pressure onto other systems—education, healthcare, and child intervention—at far greater human and financial cost.
Child development moves fast. Disability support doesn’t.
Families across Alberta are now waiting years—not months for support through FSCD.
-
Wait times have stretched to three years or more
-
Early intervention windows are being missed
-
Families are left managing complex needs alone
Behind every delay is a child missing critical developmental opportunities that won’t come again.
FSCD was designed to provide timely support.
Right now, it’s failing to deliver when it matters most.

We are parents of children with disabilities from across Alberta.
Some of us are still waiting with no support.
Others have seen what timely support can make possible.
We are relatives, neighbours and people who care about children with disabilities. We share the same concern:
The delays are unacceptable—and we won’t stay silent.
Together, we are speaking up to ensure children get the support they need, when they need it.
