The mission of the Family Resource Centers is to increase family success by providing a system of services that are culturally sensitive, comprehensive and responsive to each family’s unique needs.
PUTTING FAMILY NEEDS FIRST
Our Family Resource Centers are one-stop shops, giving families access to services ranging from nutrition, health and education to housing, utility assistance and employment training.
Each Family Resource Center has established partnerships and referral processes with local agencies, food pantries and the faith based community to be able to provide assistance quickly and smoothly. Services provided are based on extensive needs assessments tailored to capture the individual family history and plan for sustainability.
The Tulare County Family Resource Network has established the following as core services:
Family Advocacy
Parenting Education
Ongoing Intensive Family Support Services
Resource and Referrals to Partner Agencies
