Supporting Children and Caregivers
Family resource centers are community-based places where families can access support services and information, such as parenting classes, job training, mental health and family counseling, child care, job training and more.
Family resource centers can be found in a variety of settings including schools, hospitals, churches, community centers and other organizations.
With programs and activities generally provided at no cost or low cost to participating families, they are responsive to the specific needs, cultures, and interests of the local populations they serve.

Networking Resource Centers Across South Carolina
Children’s Trust convenes the S.C. Family Support Network for its members that serve families across South Carolina. The network works to build the capacity of family serving organizations by promoting best practices, standards of quality, capacity building, peer learning and programming initiatives.
The network welcomes organizations who offer a variety of services and supports for families in their local communities, encouraging its members to leverage relationships to access resources, foster peer learning and collectively strengthen community systems and processes. The network promotes national standards of quality and is a member of the National Family Support Network.
The goal of the network is that every caregiver, parent and child have access to quality family support services. It is guided by principles of community, family-centeredness, interconnection and belonging.
