Center for Families and Relationships

Center for Families and Relationships CFAR is a nonprofit counseling center serving the needs of individuals, couples, and families.

CFAR was founded more than 20 years ago with the intent to support and empower struggling families. Today, we continue the work that began with our founder, Maryann Volk and reach a broad and diverse population. The staff at CFAR is passionate about working with families to create safety, resiliency, heal and make lifelong positive changes. If you or your family are "feeling stuck", consider making an intake appointment to meet with a therapist and learn new coping skills to have a positive influence on your life!

CFAR is incredibly grateful to the Insurance Industry Charitable Foundation (IICF) for generously awarding a $25,000 grant to support the growth of our Children Deserving Services (CDS) program. CDS offers free therapy services to uninsurable youth who are typically from immigrant families struggling with a host of unique issues and barriers. CDS therapists are trained to work with youth in the context of the family, and they offer culturally appropriate bilingual services that are desperately needed in the communities they serve. As the need for CDS services grows, funding like this grant from IICF is so important.
