Mission Monday ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’œโœจ
Do you know how Family Services got its start?

Dr. Levitan takes us back to the beginning, sharing who founded Family Services and how those early efforts led to opening our shelter.

That shelter is now known as Karen's House, named in honor of our longtime Executive Director, the late Karen Cooper, whose leadership, compassion, and dedication helped shape Family Services into the organization it is today.
โžก๏ธ Watch, learn, and celebrate our story with us. ๐Ÿ“–
