as5795familypic Family Matters RadioConversations about family life. We’re imperfect, living together, and learning all the time. We support our families by sharing when we’ve made mistakes and when we’ve been brilliant. We discuss supportive parenting practices and communication in conventional and unconventional families. Explore what family life looks like beyond who’s right and who’s wrong and when everyone’s needs matter. Family Matters received an Honourable Mention at the 2010 National Community Radio Awards.

 

Our stories reveal what’s important to us and what keeps us going when we were ready to give up. Join us as we learn together.
