Family Support Program

 

Overview

The Family Support Program (FSP) helps families who are overburdened with a variety of stresses such as unemployment, single parenthood, or inadequate housing overcome their difficulties and function better as a family unit.  As a result, FSP also helps prevent and reduce child neglect, abuse, or other maltreatment.  The program uses home, community, and center-based services.  It serves as both a prevention and early intervention service that provides support, modeling, and education so that the family has a better chance of succeeding in their community.
