About Our Campaign
Families First Center believes every child deserves to feel safe, seen, and supported. Through supervised visitation, parenting education, and home-based case management, we help families rebuild trust and move toward reunification.
For over 50 years, our South Bend facility has provided a safe haven for families in crisis. After more than a century of use, this historic building now requires urgent updates to remain a welcoming, trauma-informed space for children and parents.
That’s where you come in.
What Your Gift Supports
Families First Center will make critical improvements that create a brighter, safer environment where families can focus on connection, healing, and progress including:
Exterior repairs and new windows
Updated flooring and child-friendly furniture
Safety equipment to protect families and staff
Double Your Impact
Thanks to the Community Foundation of St. Joseph County, Families First Center has secured a $33,000 commitment toward the Safe Haven Project.
That means every dollar you give will be matched, doubling your support for children and families.
