How We Started
Our Story
The Family Support Center of Southwestern Utah was founded in 1989 as a non-profit organization with the goal of supporting families through hard situations and providing a safe place for children to thrive. We have free short-term childcare nurseries in both Iron and Sevier counties and provide supportive services six neighboring counties in Utah.
What Our Families Experience
Testimonials
The parenting classes gave me tools I didn’t even know I needed. I yell less, connect more, and feel proud of the parent I’m becoming.
Dad of two
What the center does for this community is a godsend really. I wouldn't be the mother I am today without their help. In all reality I'd probably be a basket case. They have made self-care possible, so I have the energy to care for everyone else around me. I am confident that the Family Support Center will continue to make a significant impact in our community.
A mother
I will forever be beyond grateful for the resources available and the staff that work for FSC. Thank you for being amazing staff! Thank you for providing resources without judgement!
A parent
I used the Crisis Nursery when I had to leave an unsafe home. Knowing my son was safe gave me the courage to move forward.
A single mother
My son and I were able to reconnect through supervised visitation. It gave us both the space to rebuild trust.
