Who is Shared Family Care for?

Shared Family Care works with parents and caregivers who are experiencing housing instability or other challenges that are making it difficult to keep their family stable.


Families may be referred by a school, community organization, healthcare provider or other professional, or they can reach out to us directly.


Every family's situation is different. We'll start with a conversation to learn what's happening, what your family needs, and whether Shared Family Care may be a good fit.


Not sure if your family qualifies? Reach out anyway. We'd rather have a conversation.
