Families First of Florida
At Families First of Florida, we help children, adults and their families with emotional and mental health needs. With empathy and compassion, we utilize best-practice trauma informed psychiatric and therapeutic interventions to assist clients and their families with the tools and treatment to heal, grow and develop. We provide assessments, case management and clinical therapeutic services both in the home and office. In addition to clinical services, Families First of Florida serves as a therapeutic foster care licensing agency for children ages 5 to 17. Our foster parents play a crucial role as caregivers and mentors in the lives of children and teens who often need intensive services. Our collective goal is for each child to overcome their circumstances and reach their full potential.
