About Us

Family Services of Metro Orlando Mission

Family Services of Metro Orlando is a private, non-profit organization dedicated to bringing people together to create possibilities for children and families. We believe that together we can make a difference.

We think out of the box, encouraging the development of partnerships and programs that aim to enhance the well-being of children and families. 

We serve families who are experiencing a number of hardships at once. This can include homelessness or unstable housing, domestic violence, addiction or dependency, job loss or physical and/or mental health issues.  

We work with children in need of protection. We mentor young adults formerly in foster care. We support foster and adoptive families.  We care for children without families.  

Together with our partners, we assist more than 10,000 children and families each year.
