What is your organization’s mission statement?
The Center for Family Safety and Healing (TCFSH) fully addresses all aspects of family violence, including child abuse and neglect, teen dating abuse, domestic violence, and elder abuse. We offer a continuum of research-based prevention, assessment, intervention, and treatment programs for individuals who have experienced family violence. The goal of everything we do is to break the cycle of family violence and to restore hope.
