Families United, Inc. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. It was established from a passion to inspire and encourage youth, to strive to succeed beyond their expectations. Networking with families and connecting youth to opportunities, creating their own success, is the ultimate goal of this organization. As the needs have changed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are re-focusing our vision on supporting families with minor children.
Currently, Families United, Inc. has been providing temporary shelter to those suffering from domestic violence, substance use issues, and families with minor children. Additionally, we service families seeking respite for their children during the week and occasionally on the weekends. And now we are in the process of extending our services further in financial assistance to families in need.
