The FamilySource Center (FSC) provides immediate assistance to families in need and builds a foundation for improved life outcomes for youth and their parents. The program achieves these goals by providing seamless services through a group of formal collaborators, with the basic mission of improving both family income and student achievement.

For youth, FSC provides homework assistance, basic skills tutorials, and college corner exposure to enhance educational outcomes. With a regulation size gym on premises, youth also participate in sports, drill teams, and cheer squads. FSC also assists families with employment resources and referrals, case management, tax preparation, and immigration/citizenship. It also hosts community food distributions and maintains an ongoing food pantry. In its last program year, FSC increased the income of enrolled families by $3.6 million dollars.
