3041 Sherman Drive Prince Albert, S6V 7B7 Tel. 922-3247.
This is a home-based program for families who have children, aged birth to five years of age, who are developing at a slower rate or who have a disability. The family and early interventionist work together, with other service providers, to develop a plan for the child based on priorities set by the family. Information, resources and support opportunities are also made available. Parents become an active partner with the Early Interventionist and other service providers. As a team, they develop a plan based on what is most important to the family.
Situated on Marquis Road and 2nd Ave. W. (beside Tourist Information Centre). Opened in 1985 this museum was the original North West Mounted Police Guardroom constructed around 1887 when Prince Albert was still the capital of the North West Territories. The Rotary Club provided the funding to move the Guardroom from its original location to the present site and for its restoration. The Club also gathered exhibits and looked after the initial setup before donating this museum to the City of Prince Albert. Corrections have always played a major role in the history of Prince Albert and the many correctional institutions have provided some interesting items for viewing. The RCMP and the Prince Albert City Police have also provided material including equipment, techniques, written and photographic documentation that traces law enforcement in our area from the early days to present times.
