HIPPY Ottawa
In Ottawa, HIPPY is based at the Vanier Community Services Centre (VCSC), with a satellite located in Ottawa South at the Andrew Fleck Early Years Center.
CFUW-Ottawa contributes to the HIPPY program in two ways. Members provide administrative assistance in the office and help organize events for the HIPPY families throughout the school year.
CFUW-Ottawa helps in the HIPPY office, organizing curriculum and other teaching materials. This help is greatly appreciated by the Home Visitors as it frees them up to spend more time with families. Hours are flexible and a weekly commitment is not required.
The events held throughout the school year are an opportunity for the HIPPY families to meet each other and participate in an atmosphere that is social and informative with a focus on Canadian culture.
At these events CFUW-Ottawa volunteers help the HIPPY Ottawa Co-ordinator and the home visitors by registering families and children, keeping track of enthusiastic children, and generally providing assistance to parents and HIPPY Ottawa staff.
