The Family Center serves as an expert support system for New Yorkers confronting a family crisis or loss. Our team of social-service, legal, and health professionals uses a comprehensive yet personalized approach. We tailor programs for each client, so that families get essential care on all fronts. Together, we work to keep families stronger, longer. Since our founding in 1994, we have specialized in helping families when a parent or other primary caregiver faces a serious or terminal illness, such as HIV or cancer. Our seasoned team coordinates options for both immediate needs and long-term planning, so that families can prepare for a secure future. Working with their innate strengths, we help our clients stabilize and regain control. At-home visits are a cornerstone of our business. Our representatives can meet at a family's home for every type of service, at any point in a program. With a staff of social workers, medical care managers, lawyers, early childhood specialists, and more, the Family Center makes sure our clients have the right advocates at every step, until they're back on their feet. Our results show that this integrated process is key to sustainable success. We also build a sense of community among our clients, broadening their support network. All Family Center offerings are free and confidential. To continually improve our agency, we regularly evaluate both our organization and the community we serve. By analyzing internal data and participating in independent research studies, we pinpoint the most effective strategies for our clients. We also respond to emerging challenges, such as the spiking rate of diabetes. With clear business principles and passionate dedication, we restore families' health and hope.
