All Families Need Help!
The Department of Child and Family Services (DCFS) and 2-1-1 LA invite you to share the good news about free services and resources available to Los Angeles County families. Because we believe that when families are strong, children thrive! 

Our goal is to make it easy for families to seek help by way of Prevention and Aftercare Services before their needs or challenges become unmanageable. By connecting families to helpful resources close to home, you will be enhancing the child safety net for homebound families.

Here is a link to the “All Families Need Help” digital materials in English and Spanish that you may customize with your own logo and share on social media. Thank you in advance for being one of our valued community partners. We cannot do this work alone.
