Our Board

Wainwright and District Family and Community Support Services is a joint venture between the Province of Alberta and the Town of Wainwright, the Municipal District of Wainwright No. 61, and the Villages of Chauvin, Edgerton and Irma. The FCSS Act outlines the cost-sharing model in which the province provides 80% and the municipalities provide 20% of the funding for FCSS.
​
The Board is appointed annually by the Councils of each participating municipality. It comprises of two Town Councilors, two M.D. Councilors and a Council representative from each of the Villages.

The Board acts as a policy-making and resource-allocating body and is governed by the Terms and Conditions of the F.C.S.S. Agreement, as approved by the participating municipalities. Administrative responsibilities are delegated to the Executive Director hired by and accountable to the Board.
