Family Center
What is the Family Center?
The Family Center specializes in family and child development. Our mission is to support families through community driven programs, so they may provide the best possible opportunities for their children to grow intellectually and physically. The Family Center in Salisbury started providing services in 1994. We were one of the first Family Centers in Pennsylvania.
