Who We Are

Who We Are

The Family Center’s mission is to strengthen families affected by crisis, illness or loss to create a more secure present and future for their children.

We work to keep New York families stronger, longer.

With a business-minded approach to running our organization, The Family Center provides expert social and legal services, including health-care coordination, to vulnerable New York families confronting crisis or loss.

A Pfizer Foundation-funded study has proven that HIV+ consumers’ immune systems grow stronger as The Family Center works with them. This means healthier parents are able to care for their children.
