This holiday season, you can help us in giving the gift of hope, the gift of home, and the gift of healing.
Giving Tuesday

How We Give
Jenna needed to escape her relationship. The abuse was escalating, and it was endangering her newborn baby. She formulated a secret escape plan, turning to the Family Support Center for support by regularly dropping her baby off at our crisis nursery. An experienced childcare worker would provide for the baby’s needs as Jenna quietly enrolled in school, started a business, and attended court hearings—all with the plan to get out. Jenna now owns her own business, is free of abusive relationships, and gives back to other women just like her.
The Family Support Center gave Jenna the gift of HOPE.
Mike had just completed drug treatment. After years of wrestling with addiction, homelessness, and losing custody of his children, he chose sobriety and became ready to rebuild his life. Following months of hard work with our supportive staff at LifeStart Village, Mike was awarded full custody of his children. He began rebuilding trust with those who matter most, healing from his trauma, and creating a home. Today, Mike is deeply involved in the lives of his three children and says he is ‘living a new version of the American dream.’
The Family Support Center’s LifeStart Village gave Mike and his children the gift of HOME.
Sherri’s (name changed) son experienced abuse at the hand of a family member. In the aftermath of this trauma, Sherri’s son was experiencing mental distress and unusual behaviors, so she sought help from our therapy team. With specialized training in mental health care for children, a therapist started working with Sherri and her son. They are now forging a path toward a brighter future.
The Family Support Center gave Sherri and her son the gift of HEALING.
