Nuestra Familia is a home-based
family support and preservation program serving the children
and families of Maricopa County. The mission of Nuestra
Familia is “To strengthen and stabilize families
through a variety of family centered services which are
comprehensive, coordinated, community based, accessible
and culturally appropriate. The only requirement to be
apart of Nuestra Familia is the need of your family,
regardless of income or opportunity.
The two main goals of Nuestra Familia are Family Support
and Family Preservation. Family Support focuses on creating
a safe and nurturing home for all family members enhancing
child development. Family preservation seeks to avoid
unnecessary out-of-home placement, and returning displaced
children to their homes as quickly as possible.
Nuestra Familia also provides a number of services to
support their goals. Those services include Behavioral
and Mental Health Services, Parenting and Independent
Living Skills Training, Comprehensive Health Education
and Advocacy and Referral Services.
