Thank you to the PNC Grow Up Great Team! Because of their dedication to our mission, the Therapeutic Preschool received a $6000 grant to purchase new curriculum that will help our teachers guide children with special needs. This curriculum will allow our teachers to spend their time working with kids, and not so much on activity prep time.

Thank you for supporting our work at Family Resources!

I’m sure you’ve heard the news that SNAP benefits are in danger during our recent government shutdown. At Family Resources, close to 90% of the children we serve receive these benefits.

We at Family Resources believe that no child in our country, one of the richest in the world, should ever go hungry.

As an agency we have invested our own money, relayed resources that are available, helped families we serve to navigate these resources, (which can be tricky) and will continue to do so.

But we need your help. As our neighbor, our donor, and a fellow human, please find it in your resources to donate whatever you can so that children and families will not go hungry in this unforeseen time. We have received an amazing $2,825 in the last week, let’s keep it going!

Your donation will go directly towards the purchase of sustainable food and grocery store gift cards.

Our Story

Our mission is to prevent and treat child abuse by strengthening families. Everything we do is focused on creating a better future for our children. We provide families and neighborhoods the tools they need to keep children safe, prevent abuse, manage conflict, and support the changing needs of families.

Envisioning and achieving a better future for children requires a compassionate, trauma-informed approach to strengthening families. Our resources, tools, and programs focus on prevention, intervention, and treatment at 19 locations across the Greater Pittsburgh Area. Here, we are able to provide the right services, at the right time, for the families we serve.

Our culture at Family Resources is marked by our trauma-informed approach to providing care. We understand the impact of exposure to Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), which are traumatic experiences in a person’s life occurring before the age of 18. We know how important the prevention of, and healing from, these experiences are for strengthening families - studies have shown that as the number of ACEs a child experiences increases, so does the likelihood of health problems later in life. Trauma-informed care provides us with the right culture and tools to address the critical needs of out clients.
