For over 23 years, The Family Center has been a trusted source of information and support for families living in Michigan’s Grosse Pointe and Harper Woods communities. As a non-profit community organization, our work helps families and individuals connect – to each other and their communities. We do this by providing online resources and onsite programs that empower, guide, uplift and engage families through all of life’s pivotal moments.
Our Mission
Whenever. However.
We’re Here to Help.
Building happier, healthier families starts with information access. We partner with local schools and organizations, as well as members of our Association of Professionals, to offer programs and resources on a wide range of topics important to families today. While we predominantly serve the Grosse Pointe and Harper Woods communities, our resources are available 24/7 online, as well as by phone during business hours, to anyone in need.
