FamilyTime
Serving the Community Since 1977
-
The mission of FamilyTime is to provide services and programs to encourage the mental health and wellness of the community as well as promote safety and support for the prevention of domestic and sexual violence.
------------
FamilyTime's vision is to advocate for women, men and children in crisis situations and offer them the vital services they need in order to regain control of their lives. Services include counseling, case management, assistance with legal matters, and shelter from an abusive situation. In order to contribute through social change, we raise awareness in the community through education and training to prevent sexual violence and help break the cycle of domestic violence. -
