Family & Community Services

With deep roots in the neighborhoods we serve, we help build strong families and vibrant communities. Using a person-centered approach, we focus on the entire family’s needs – providing access to counseling; community centers; and literacy, after school, and employment services that support family life. We provide individuals and families who are homeless with a safe place to stay. When children, youth and adults with special needs are unable to remain at home, we provide caring, family-like settings.
And through strategic partnerships with community organizations, government agencies, and private foundations we are bringing resources and opportunity to communities where it is most needed.
