The Starland Regional FCSS still fully supports our Family Resource Workers (FRW’s) in the Morrin and Delia Schools. These resource workers are available to provide support services to students and their families which will contribute to their social and emotional well-being, as well as deliver preventive education programming. The FRW’s are available to provide counselling and/or support services to any individual (student or community member) or family. This programming is a collaboration between the local schools, Prairie Land Public School Division and the Starland Regional FCSS. At Morrin School contact Mr. Clinton Taylor at 403-772-3838; and at Delia School contact Ms. Martina Tolton at 403-364-3777.

In addition, Starland County has partnered with Wheatland County Counselling, to provide a Community Counselling Service. Eligible residents of Starland County and the Villages of Delia, Morrin and Munson can access low-cost or free professional counselling services.
