Our Mission

One trusted provider, every stage of life

1ARC Family Care was founded on a simple belief: every person deserves to be treated with dignity, respect, and cultural understanding. We work first with children in the care of Children and Family Services, providing safe and reliable transportation to visits, appointments, school, and court. But we don't stop there — because families don't exist in silos, and neither should care.

From supporting parents through Alberta's FSCD program to providing respite care when caregivers need a break, from holistic family support to dignified senior care — we've built our services around the full arc of family life. One provider your family can trust, from infancy to older adulthood, serving communities across Alberta.

Compassionate Culturally Responsive Reliable Family-Centred
Our Values

What guides us every day

Dignity First

Every person we care for — from the smallest child to the oldest senior — deserves to be treated with unwavering dignity and respect. This is non-negotiable.

Cultural Understanding

We honour the diverse backgrounds, languages, traditions, and values of every family we serve. Care is personal — and it should feel that way.

Trust & Safety

Families trust us with their most precious people. We earn that trust through rigorous vetting, continuous training, and an uncompromising commitment to safety.

Family-Centred Care

We see the whole family, not just the individual. Our support strengthens the entire family system, because healthy families raise healthy children and honour aging loved ones.

Excellence Without Exception

We hold ourselves to the highest standard in everything we do — from the quality of care to the reliability of our transportation to the warmth of every interaction.

Continuity of Care

Your family's needs evolve, and we evolve with you. No need to retell your story each time — one consistent, trusted provider from infancy to older adulthood.
