Mission Statement

The goal of the Family Enhancement Center is to prevent child abuse and to promote healing among children who have experienced abuse. We strive to build strong children, strong families and support communities to create a society where children are safe, respected and valued. Child abuse robs children of their childhood--we help give it back.

Description

The Family Enhancement Center is a community based non-profit organization with a mission dedicated to keeping all children safe. Our philosophy, healing takes place with the involvement and support of the whole family. We don’t just treat a child or a parent -we include the entire family in the healing experience.

The Family Enhancement Center works to promote change by supporting the healing of children and families, while working in the community to create a culture where violence against youth is not accepted. We help restore children’s dignity, self-worth and the potential for meaningful lives through creative, effective and innovative healing techniques.
