The Families First Agenda describes how government is acting to improve life for families – families of all kinds! On this site you’ll see what we are doing and how we’re moving forward. You’re invited to help us by sharing your ideas, advice and comments.
Investing in the health and well-being of families helps them to grow and thrive. We’re focused on keeping family life affordable, supporting vulnerable families and making communities safer – and remaining fiscally responsible.
Reducing the costs of government keeps your provincial personal income tax down. How can government spend money more effectively in some key areas to keep life affordable? Your ideas will help us. Tell us about them.
Protecting and caring for our most vulnerable citizens is a duty of great importance. What can government do to best help families living with the challenges of mental illness, end-of-life care or dementia? Share your comments.
Ensuring that families are safe and secure is essential to the health and success of our province. What does community safety mean to you? Is there more that we can do to help your family feel safe? Share your ideas with us.
Help us improve family-related programs and services in B.C. The eleven questions below cover some of the important topics described in the Families First Agenda. Your feedback will help us determine the priorities for government’s next budget. We’ll also report back on what we learn.
Please add your comments to any of the topics that interest you. If you need background information, read the Agenda. Note: No personal information is required from you or collected when you participate below. Thank you!
Families are as diverse as our great province, and they are bound together by love and by an unshakeable commitment to supporting each other. Families make our communities stronger.
