PARISHES WE SERVE
Acadia - Evangeline - Iberia - Lafayette - St. Landry - St. Martin - Vermilion
| |
Throughout history, families have been turning to other families that have dealt with similar struggles and it is within our nature to do so. Families Helping Families has been developed to aid families in the search for the support, information, and resources that can help them.
A very powerful bond and commitment exists between families who share like circumstances and travel a similar path.
An informed, educated, and supported family raises a strong, nourished, and capable child with a bright and successful future.
We believe access to this kind of support and resources should be available to everyone who needs it and Families Helping Families is here to help.

Please see below to find the FHF Center located in your area of the state.
The Families Helping Families Networks are individual, non-profit, family-driven resource centers. They are a group of families, who, through their own experiences, promote advocacy and are committed to reaching other families who have members with disabilities.
The term "disability" includes physical, mental, emotional, behavioral, and/or academic needs.
The FHF Centers are directed and staffed by parents, self-advocates, or family members of individuals with disabilities. The Centers provide education and trainings, peer support, and information and referrals as part of their free services.
