We are committed to keeping families together whenever possible. The JAFCO Family Preservation Program supports at-risk families where at least one parent or extended family member can provide a safe home for the child. Families in this program receive 24-hour crisis support and case management/referral services to address the following needs:

• Food & Shelter
• Parent Training
• Clothing
• Day Care
• After-School Care
• Summer Camp
• Legal Issues
• Supervised Visitation
• Therapy
• Employment
• Vocational Training
• Co-Parenting

 

MST In-Home Family Therapy Program

The JAFCO MST (Multi-Systemic Therapy) Program is an intensive 6-month in-home therapy program funded by the Broward Children’s Services Council to help families with children ages 10 to 18 who are at risk for out-of-home placement due to issues related to truancy, aggression, and drug experimentation.

Senior Caregiver Program

Florida is ranked fourth in the nation for the number of children being raised by their grandparents. Funded by the Department of Elder Affairs through a grant by the ADRC in Broward County, this program provides much needed supportive services to seniors who have taken on the difficult task of raising their grandchildren with the ultimate goal of preserving the family.
