Our Needs

Financial support to help us meet the growing demands for our services. The events over the past year have left our children, adults, and families grappling with emotional distress and anxiety that most are not equipped to handle. The most urgent need Child & Family Guidance Center has at this time is for unrestricted funding. Unrestricted funds allow us to more easily adjust our strategy which is critical for maintaining the standard of care our patients rely on and need now more than ever. Addressing the evolving mental, emotional, and behavioral health care needs of our community's most vulnerable remains our top priority during this time.

At Child & Family Guidance Center, NO ONE is denied services based on inability to pay. During this time, when so many in our community are hurting, we stand ready to support and serve. But we need your help. If you are able, please consider making a gift today. Whether it's $10 or $10,000, no amount is too small to support our unemployed, uninsured neighbors in need.
