Mission
CHILD & FAMILY SUPPORT SERVICES, INC. PROVIDES A RANGE OF SUPPORTIVE SERVICES TO PEOPLE ACROSS THE LIFESPAN WITH INTELLECTUAL/DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES AND OTHER SPECIAL NEEDS IN THE BOROUGHS OF NEW YORK CITY AND LOWER WESTCHESTER. OUR COMMUNITY-BASED, DIRECT-CARE SERVICES AIM TO FOSTER INDEPENDENCE BOTH AT HOME AND IN THE COMMUNITY, THEREBY ALLOWING THE PEOPLE WE SERVE TO LEAD FULL, AUTONOMOUS LIVES. WE ARE DEDICATED TO EMPOWERING PEOPLE WITH SPECIAL NEEDS ON THEIR ROAD TO INDEPENDENCE AND SELF-ADVOCACY IN A CULTURALLY-SENSITIVE, PERSON-CENTERED AND FAMILY-ORIENTED MANNER. BEING PART OF THE COMMUNITY GIVES US A GREATER UNDERSTANDING OF THE PLIGHT OF THE PEOPLE WE SERVE. THROUGH OUR MULTILINGUAL AND MULTICULTURAL STAFF, WE INTEND TO REACH OUT TO A VARIETY OF ETHNIC GROUPS IN UNDERSERVED AREAS OF NEW YORK CITY AND LOWER WESTCHESTER.
