“Family Service Association is a non-profit committed to making a difference in our communities. We truly care about our program participants, and offer a number of invaluable resources that enable families to succeed. From our preschool and childcare centers, that educate young children and provides parents and guardians with peace of mind while they work to provide for their families; to our Senior Nutrition and Case Management services, that put healthy meals on the table; to our mental health programs and community centers, that look after the general well-being of our program participants; these services positively impact the lives of others on a daily basis. I was proud to be a part of such a wonderful organization!”
