About

Help For Families Experiencing Domestic Violence and Victims of Sexual Assault

Established in 1981 by volunteers, the Family Crisis Center provides services to victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. It also provides extensive educational and violence prevention programs in Cameron and Willacy counties. A 9 member Board of Directors governs the organization, setting policy and being responsible for the financial solvency of the organization. The board meets monthly and employs and supervises the Executive Director. Currently there are 23 full time staff members and volunteers who perform duties and provide services, which benefit the clients. Family Crisis Center, Inc. does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, sexual orientation, religion, sex, disability, and age.

Educational programs dealing with the dynamics of family violence and sexual assault as well as information about the Family Crisis Center’s services are presented to civic organizations, church groups and professionals in appropriate service areas. Abuse prevention programs are also presented to all aged students, elementary schools through college.

In addition to these client-centered and educational services, the staff trains new volunteers in Harlingen and Raymondville to perform publicity, fundraising and clerical duties.

Small deeds done are better than great deeds planned.
