Narrative

The Family Resource Center works with parents, children, teens, grandparents, guardians, caregivers and any other family member or member of the community who may be involved with the family. Staff at the FRC can assess the needs of the family members, recommend services, and help with access to other community services if needed.

The Family Resource Center (FRC) is a single point of entry to access community-based, culturally competent family support services. The FRC helps families focus on strengthening their bonds, connecting to others, and engaging in their communities.
