We educate and empower parents in stressful times to help preserve the health of the family and help parents avoid the situations that can be damaging to children.
About connecting families
Who we are
Connecting Families (formerly Family Outreach of Montgomery County) is a 501(c)(3) organization of trained professionals and volunteers committed to building healthy families in Montgomery County, TX since 1986. Originally founded as a partnership between Children's Protective Services and community volunteers, our mission was to work with at-risk families to prevent child abuse and neglect. Today, our mission has expanded to offer programs for any family in our community, especially those who are facing stressful or challenging times with their young children. We work to provide education and support to parents, to strengthen families and help parents better meet the needs of their children.
