Our Mission:

The Family Foundation, Inc. is a 501c3 nonprofit organization committed to the needs of at-risk youth who would benefit from a therapeutic environment to achieve educational goals. By sponsoring programs and developing facilities that address this concern, and by expanding accessibility to care through financial assistance, we support families seeking lasting recovery.

Our History:
