At our meeting earlier this week, Renee Z. Dominguez, Ph.D., Co-Executive Director of Family Service Center (FSC), spoke to our club about FSC's history (founded in 1913) and work in the North Shore community (and beyond) for 113 YEARS! Simply summed up, their work is as stated in their Mission:

To strengthen and empower families and communities by providing accessible evidenced‐based counseling, crisis response, outreach and education.

And they do a great job of it, especially as the need for mental health services is increases as our society becomes more complex.
