Community & Family Services

Sometimes, families need extra support when it comes to creating a home, managing finances, and raising their children. Sheppard Pratt offers warm, caring assistance to foster health and well-being in the home and in communities through Community and Family Services programs.

Whether you are looking for adult education classes, child care and child development programs, supervised visitation, monitored exchange, assistance with securing benefits and government services, financial education and coaching, or parenting skills classes, we are here to help you and your family access the support you need.
