Helping Services for Youth & Families helps individuals and families make informed decisions that ultimately benefit everyone. We offer parenting classes for all ages and in-home visits for parents of children birth to 3 years. Our youth mentoring programs match a caring adult with an eager child.

Our skilled advocates offer assistance to those in domestic violence situations. We talk to kids about the dangers of substance abuse and work closely with retailers who sell tobacco and alcohol. We educate the community on the latest drug trends and stand side-by-side with your neighbors at local coalition meetings, finding solutions to local concerns.

We partner with YOU, your family, your friends, and your neighbors. Helping Services empowers the community through skills and knowledge delivered through presentations, school programs, special campaigns, and playgroups.
