“After finding the courage to leave my abuser after 12 years, I was diagnosed with Stage 3 Pancreatic Cancer. With little family and unable to work, I felt so alone until I found Family and Community Resources. FCR’s Mental Health Clinicians and Domestic Violence Advocates supported me during the most difficult time in my life. They gave me the strength to carry on and keep fighting - I do not know where I would be without their help.” – Sarah

FCR needs your support to help more survivors of trauma like Sarah. Please consider making a gift that will help meet the immediate and ongoing needs of the children and families we serve.
