Luz
Luz is a 32-year-old South American mother of two children. Luz moved to the U.S. in 2018 to join her children’s father.
Luz felt she was making the best choice for her family when she moved from South America to the United States to be with the father of her children. Although she had high hopes and good intentions, she found moving to a new home to be challenging.
After a physical altercation between Luz and her partner, she was referred to Family Centered Services. Through intervention, counseling and support services, she made changes to keep herself and her children safe.
She established herself and her children within the community, built self-sufficiency, improved her ability to communicate in English and became involved in her children’s school.
Family Centered Services helped Luz become the excellent mother she was always capable of being.
It’s amazing what can happen when the obstacles are removed. Explore what Family Centered Services can do for you.

Kayla and Darius
Kayla and Darius found solutions to their parenting challenges.
Kayla and Darius know one of the most common misunderstandings of parenthood is that you’ll somehow naturally know how to do everything. But that simply isn’t true – and it doesn’t make a mother or father less of a parent.
Family Centered Services partnered with Kayla and Darius to help them understand the needs underlying their children’s challenging behavior and how to meet those needs while being stronger, wiser and kind.
Children’s lives improve through better parenting, partner’s relationships improve and the entire family unit is elevated to pursue the life they deserve and need.
