“Double down” means to strengthen one's commitment to a particular strategy or course of action. Our role as an agency is to promote the well being of families and individuals and advocate for change. We are dedicated to strengthening our commitment in these times. We are leveraging our resources to build a deeper foundation which will result in more changed lives and stronger communities.

Our Exchange Club Family Center (ECFC) program is helping a young family of five who recently lost their home due to a fire. Case managers are helping to provide resources, food, and other tangible goods. Their support is helping this family get through tough times.

Our counseling program is working hard to expand services to help keep up with demand. COVID-19 has created mental health issues for many folks. Our counselors are working diligently to support and treat clients. Your monthly support of $25 can give people the access they need to critical resources.

Our Impact Report for 2019-20 will be finalized in early OCT and it will go out via email and social media. This year’s report will look different from past years. Keep an eye out in the coming weeks. If you are reading this, we value you and the role you play. Family Service can’t serve over 5,500 people each year without folks like you. Thank you for tracking with us and supporting the mission.

Stay safe,
Mark Butler
