Helping children, young adults and families

Our dedicated team works closely with kids and parents, offering support that helps keep families safely together whenever possible. When children must be placed in out-of-home foster care, we focus on helping families reunify in a safe and stable environment. For young adults transitioning out of foster care, FamiliesFirst Network provides services helping youth build independent, successful lives.

By supporting FamiliesFirst Network, you’re investing in stronger families, safer communities and brighter futures for children and youth across Northwest Florida.

Support children in foster care

Supporting families

Specially trained case managers support children and families with a wide range of needs – from outside of the home in foster care, to prevention services inside the biological home, working to keep families together. We also offer young adult services to guide and assist those transitioning out of foster care.

Stories of success

Case management services

We provide individualized case management to address the unique needs of each family and protect children in our care from abuse and neglect. Our case workers helped children in foster care reunite safely with their families whenever possible. Plus, each year, our specialized team works with 500 children and their families on child abuse prevention services. By addressing the root cause challenges that parents face, we reduce the need for foster care placements and keep families safely together whenever possible.

How you can help

Young adult services

The transition to adulthood can be especially challenging for youth aging out of foster care. That’s why our Young Adult Services are designed to provide continued support, stability, and guidance during this critical phase of life. Our specialized team provides housing options, life skills development and guidance to help our young adults build the foundation for a successful and independent future.
