The health of our children, communities and nation depends on
strong families. The institute of marriage and family Canada (IMFC)
states that the aim of society and government policy should be to
protect and support this foundation. How is this
accomplished?
Our guest, Dave Quist, Executive Director of the
Institute of Marriage and Family Canada
(http://www.imfcanada.org/) outlines the many challenges facing
families today, and provides ideas for overcoming the obstacles for
confronting families in our fast paced society. Mr. Quist has been
an active participant in an annual, international meeting of think
tanks who collaborate to advance the position that marriage and
strong families act as a protector against poverty. This is a
energetic conversation brimming with ideas for developing stronger,
healthier family relationships. Topics include:
• Staying connected with the “family dinner”
• Pre-marriage counseling
• The challenges of family financing
• Understanding the “me” generation
• How to make relationships stronger with your
children and within your marriage
• Making marriages successful rather than divorce
easier
• What co-parents need to understand so that
children become positive contributors to society
• The cultural shift of marriage
• And, so much more……
The Institute of Marriage and Family Canada (IMFC) conducts,
compiles and presents the latest and most accurate research to
ensure that marriage and family-friendly policy are foremost in the
minds of Canada’s decision makers.
