Review for Family to Family Network, Houston, TX, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been a member of Family to Family Network since the beginning when we had meeting in our homes. Without the support, guidance, and collaboration of everyone in this organization my daughter would not have become the community member and productive citizen that she is today. When others were telling me "she cannot" they were saying "yes she can" no matter what the situation. We understood and identified with one another and our kids could be friends in an accepting environment. We, including our kids, have all moved on with the course of life but without this orginization in the early years I know I would not have had the strength, determination and knowledge to advocate for my child in all areas and improve the quality of her life. T

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

all areas in the lives of the children and young adults they serve.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

continue to obtain more knowledge and skills about adult issues such as social security, guardianship etc.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

the ability of help everyone no matter what the disability or what the issue.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

of the utmost quality in both compassion, knowledge and skills.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

do alot more than most of the non-profits that have become so overloaded with administrative costs they have lost sight of what the money is really for....to help the clients they serve.

Ways to make it better...

we would have had more funding for outreach and one and one support for families.

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

how to keep good volunteers and staff with the budget issues they constantly face.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2009

Role:  Client Served & I received counseling, information and support services.
