was developed to provide support to community therapists working with preschoolers who have feeding issues.

In September 1999, the CFRG was formed through a partnership between TVCC and tykeTALK. The goal of CFRG is to support community therapists in their assessment of and intervention with preschoolers who have feeding issues.

The CFRG is an interdisciplinary team consisting of a Speech-Language Pathologist, Occupational Therapist, and a Psychologist  (as requested by CFRG members). The CFRG is based at Thames Valley Children's Centre and is available to all therapists servicing preschool children in Elgin, Middlesex and Oxford counties.
