These programs support and sustain families. Many of the programs nourish and embrace the family core, while others deal with those experiencing stress or dysfunction. The primary focuss of programs in this area is to unite people with resources that strengthen family units and help prevent fragmentation.
Many of these programs touch island families experiencing extreem challenges that they never thought they would have to face in their life time. Others, are less severve in nature but no less valueable as they deal with conflict or legal matters that would be unafordable or cause exteem financial hardship if it weren't for the program assisitance. Some of the programs are pro-active and structured for prevention.
The gratitude expressed in the client outcome stories deplict the vital role of these programs to the individuals and our communities as a whole.
