Vision

With a commitment to serving the most vulnerable as if they were family, The Family Center partners with its clients to provide tailored tools and services so that, ultimately, they may realize their individual goals. In order to do this, The Family Center is an adaptive, well-known, and sustainably funded organization that makes continual investments in its organizational infrastructure and leverages its core capabilities. We work city-wide from our home in Brooklyn and remain committed to our client-centered culture and approach, which is grounded in mutual accountability and respect.

2. 2.Increase capacity for delivery of Medicaid-reimbursed behavioral health treatment services for impoverished New Yorkers with complex co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders
3. 3.Bring all agency procedures and practices into alignment with the principles of trauma informed care. We strive to ensure that our work respects historical, gender and cultural differences.
