Celebrating 53 Years of Service

This year, SPIRITT Family Services proudly celebrates 53 years of strengthening families, empowering individuals, and building healthier communities. Since 1972, our mission has remained rooted in compassion, connection, and commitment to supporting those facing life’s greatest challenges.

For over five decades, we have walked alongside thousands of children, youth, and families — providing critical resources, mental health services, and community-based support designed to foster resilience and hope. As we reflect on our journey, we are grateful for our dedicated staff, partners, and community who make this work possible.

Together, we look forward to continuing our mission and creating brighter futures for generations to come. Here’s to 53 years of service — and to the many more ahead!

National Child Abuse Prevention Month

Each April, we recognize National Child Abuse Prevention Month as a reminder of the critical role communities play in supporting families and preventing child abuse and neglect. Prevention starts with awareness, education, and building strong, resilient families through nurturing relationships, access to resources, and trauma-informed care.


At SPIRITT Family Services, we are committed to this work year-round. Through our integrated behavioral health services, parent education programs, and community outreach efforts, we help mitigate risk factors and strengthen family well-being. Our services include therapy for children, youth, and adults, intensive in-home support, parenting and domestic violence support groups, substance use treatment, and connection to vital resources like food, clothing, and housing support.

Autism Awareness Month

In recognition of Autism Awareness Day, we celebrate the unique strengths, talents, and potential of individuals with autism. This day serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of fostering understanding, raising awareness, and building a more inclusive and supportive world for all.


At ABA Toolbox, that mission is at the heart of their work. Founded by a team of Board-Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs), ABA Toolbox empowers therapists and educators with innovative tools that simplify processes, enhance learning, and improve outcomes for individuals with special needs.


At SPIRITT Family Services, we are proud to stand alongside families, community partners, and organizations like ABA Toolbox in promoting education, empowerment, and meaningful support for every individual on their journey to growth and success.

Denim Day April 30th 2025

On Wednesday, April 30th, SPIRITT Family Services will join millions across the globe in recognizing Denim Day, a powerful movement that challenges harmful myths and victim-blaming attitudes surrounding sexual violence. Since 1999, Denim Day has served as a visible statement of support for survivors and a call to action for communities to stand against sexual violence.


We invite our staff, partners, and community to wear denim in solidarity — not just as a fashion choice but as a commitment to raising awareness, fostering education, and supporting survivors with compassion and respect. Together, we can break the silence and promote a culture of prevention, dignity, and healing.
