Family Advancement Ministries (FAM) Is a Catholic, diocesan, social service organization that, in partnership with the community at-large, nurtures a reverence for life by responding to the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of families with the goal of moving families toward independence and self-sufficiency.
Believing in the compassion of God, we affirm the sacredness of human life by guiding families in need to be hope-filled, empowered and self-sufficient.
Direct Services covers many areas that can enable families to move ahead and continue to be self-reliant. These include:
There are certain requirements and obligations associated with the assistance given; these are listed under the individual links.
These services combined with our education program help families continue on the path to self-sufficiency; with a little help many families stay afloat and can concentrate on other matters that they need to work out to start on a path of independence.
