FAYS is flexible to meet our families’ needs through use of our Strengthening Families Curriculum and Family Support Specialists that work with families at times and places that work best for them.

Happy New Year! 🎆 2026! In addition to being more active on this page and engaging with y’all, my personal goal this year is to say no when I mean no. My plate is full and that’s ok. I’m not hurting feelings by saying no when I need or want to say no. Maybe is usually perceived as a yes, when we meant no without having to say it. That leads to a miscommunication and that miscommunication can lead to a fight or resentment.
What are your 2026 goals?
Not sure where to start?
Our FAYS family support specialists are back in office next week and we would love to sign your family up to help!

As we creep up on the new year, it’s easy to feel like we didn’t accomplish anything on our 2025 to do list, but progress is slow and we need to work on celebrating the small successes!
If you aren’t sure where to start, our FAYS family support specialists will be back in office next week and we can utilize our Strengthening Families curriculum to help set your family up for a better 2026!

Happy Friday! Time for that post holiday nap for those with a day off and almost there for those who have to wait a bit longer. Remember rest is OK! One might even argue it’s necessary no matter your role in the family. We can’t pour from an empty cocoa mug!
Not sure how to unplug? Fill out an online referral and one of our FAYS family support specialists will contact you after the break to help your family create goals and healthy habits in 2026!
