Review for Family Outreach Richardson-Plano Inc, Plano, TX, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Family Outreach is an amazing organization that breaks the cycle of abuse that occurs within families for generations. Family Outreach Volunteers work one-on-one with families referred from CPS for long periods of time to insure that a family is stable and able to cope with the day to day stress factors that often lead to abuse. They never abandon a family; if a family begins to have trouble after a case is closed Family Outreach will step in and once again and assist the family in order to protect the children. Perhaps most importantly those who work with Family Outreach genuinely care for those they serve and thus become a lifeline for desperate families who often have nowhere else to turn.

Review for Family Outreach Richardson-Plano Inc, Plano, TX, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Family Outreach is an amazing organization which works tirelessly to break the cycle of child abuse within families. Volunteers work one-on-one with those referred to them from CPS and spend critical hours helping parents learn how to engage their children and find critical resources within their communities. Family Outreach has a tremendous success rate. 88% of those served by do not have another confirmed case of abuse in the family within four years of receiving services.
