Testimonials

“Our therapist was very helpful and is very approachable and is a great support for our family.”

Family, FPS Client
“The FPS service that was provided proved to be more helpful than I thought it would be. Not only did the provider help me with getting a planner to keep up with appointments but helped me with court documents for a parenting plan, documents for waiver of fees for court documents, took me over to the courthouse more than once, and helped me with organizing my apartment as well as purchased items I needed to get organized. We sat and worked on the documents together and were able to get the papers filed and the father served. My provider also helped me find a great daycare for my kids. My provider was very easy to talk to and really helped me feel like I wasn’t alone as a single mother of two kids. I am very thankful for this service.”
