Local Children’s Aid Society which provides child protection and care for children assigned to its care.
 
Children’s Aid Societies serve to protect children, and whenever possible, work to keep children at home with their natural families. In cases where children cannot remain at home or live with relatives safely, Children's Aid Societies offer a variety of substitute care programs, including foster care; and also facilitate the adoption of Crown Wards (permanent wards of the province).
 
Renfrew Family and Children's Services is a Children's Aid Society and is one of the 53 Children's Aid Societies in Ontario.
