(216)

Purpose: We help families start and stay strong. Mission: We provide resources that guide people in their relationships to live better lives. Vision: Our vision is for healthy relationship skills to be passed down by every family from generation to generation. Values:
- We lead with empathy. Relationships can be complicated, and we’re no stranger to the challenges and complications of family. We

empathize and understand to the best of our ability before creating and providing resources.

- We put our families and relationships first. Our work, tasks and to do’s will never get in the way of putting our own families and relationships first. We strive to always practice what we preach.

- We are a consistent presence in a changing culture. We know relationships will change and evolve, and we will be a constant part of the conversation. We believe healthy relationship skills will remain a consistent, driving force in the overall health of families and communities worldwide.

- We share truth. Our resources are based on solid, credible research, not our own opinions. We provide the most up-to-date information in engaging, easy-to-use formats.

- We pursue excellence. We go all in and aim to inspire everyone who engages with us.

Sometimes the biggest meltdowns happen with the people our kids feel safest with.

At First Things First, we help parents and families build the relationship skills to navigate those hard moments with more connection, understanding, and confidence.

Through programs like EPIC (Empowered Parents in the Community), coaching, and therapy, we equip families with practical tools that strengthen relationships and create healthier patterns for generations to come. ❤️

Families are complex, and meaningful change rarely comes from just one kind of support.

That’s why we use the Domains of Family Practice, a whole-family approach that brings together relationship education, case management, therapy, and coaching to meet people where they are.

Because stronger families need support that sees the whole picture. ❤️

At our core, nothing has changed. We are still the same First Things First, walking alongside families, building healthy relationships, and believing in the power of small steps that create lasting change.

Our new look is simply a reflection of that heart. A brand that better tells our story, honors where we’ve been, and points to where we’re going.

For the Family ❤️

Today, we’re turning the page to a new chapter.

You may notice a new logo, refreshed colors, and a new look. But while our brand has evolved, the heart behind our work has not.

This rebrand isn’t about looking different for the sake of looking different. It’s about creating a clearer path for families to find support, a clearer voice for sharing our mission, and a wider invitation for every parent, caregiver, and child who walks through our doors.

Because First Things First has always been about supporting families, not fixing them.

Our new logo is built around a series of steps—a reminder that healthy families aren’t built in one giant leap. They’re built one conversation, one choice, and one next step at a time. We’re honored to walk alongside families on that journey with practical tools, meaningful relationships, and hope.

Our look is changing. Our voice is clearer. Our table is wider. But our commitment remains the same: strengthening relationships, supporting families, and helping build a healthier Hamilton County. ❤️

For the Family. For the future. First Things First.
