Every summer, every child at FamilyMatters gets to go to camp. For kids who have faced so much hardship, it's more than a trip, it's the experience of a lifetime.

"It was SO fun! I swam, played sports, and my favorite part was singing around a giant bonfire at night with all my new friends. I didn't think about any of the hard stuff. I just felt happy. That was a really big deal for me.
โ€” Ethan, Age 11, FamilyMatters

Our clinical team is working hard to make sure every child has what they need to head off to camp this summer, and we need your help to fill the gaps! From toiletries and sunscreen to duffel bags and necessities, every item on our Wishlist goes directly to a child of FamilyMatters getting ready for the summer of their life.

Visit https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2EB79285LZR7Q?ref_=wl_share and help us clear the list!

Items ship directly to us. Every single purchase goes directly to children like Ethan.
Thank you for being part of our FamilyMatters family. The children of FamilyMatters know, even when they've never met you, that people care about them. That knowledge alone is something they carry with them long after the summer ends.

We're proud to share that our CEO, Justin Kohlhagen, was recently featured in a Q&A with CityBiz South Florida, and his words capture exactly why we do what we do.

For more than 30 years, JAFCO has ensured that no child or family faces their toughest moments alone by providing care, safety, and support to children and families impacted by abuse, neglect, trauma, and developmental disabilities.

As Justin put it, our mission is simple: every child deserves a place to belong.

Today, we join our community in pausing to honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. Their courage and selflessness are the foundation of the freedoms we cherish.

In observance of Memorial Day, the FamilyMatters office is closed today.

Wishing you and your loved ones a meaningful and peaceful day of remembrance. ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ
