    I advocate and encourage families to refer themselves to Family SkillBuilders. It’s such a powerful experience, and it’s okay to ask for help before becoming so overwhelmed.

    I just love Family SkillBuilders, out of all the services I do this one has taught me the most

    Parent

    I (Family Support Specialist) encouraged mom to accept any progress as progress. With her support, her teenage son gradually sorted through his emotional struggles, and their trust grew.

    Community Partner

    Family SkillBuilders Specialists that I’ve worked with have been easy to engage with, both for me and the client. Good listeners, keen observation and critical thinking skills. I’ve been very impressed with FSB’s ability to assess safety and family functioning WHILE considering the family’s circumstances/culture, etc. FSB Specialists have been very solution-oriented, non-judgmental, compassionate, and down to earth. I feel very confident referring to Family SkillBuilders – LOVE your program!

    She worked hard to break out of a generational pattern of poverty, criminality, and addiction. She knew recovery was more than just choosing not to use—it meant changing the way one thinks, processes emotions, and relates to others.

    Community Partner

    Through patience and guidance, the Family Support Specialist helped mom reconnect emotionally with her sons. As their trust grew, so did the family’s ability to heal and move forward together.

    Community Partner

    FSB’s Family Support Specialist helped mom approach challenges with her son using collaborative problem-solving. Together, they worked as a team to address his behavior, which strengthened their relationship and built trust.

    Community Partner

    Despite many setbacks, mom was determined to get her children back and committed to her sobriety. She not only worked through her own recovery but also advocated for improvements in the treatment programs that helped her.

    Community Partner

    I worked with a Specialist who was really amazing on a complex case. I always got reports and updates from the Specialist in a timely manner. I wish FSB was on referral more often because your ISRS services are great for families.

    I called Family SkillBuilders again for more support when I felt overwhelmed. Once again, we were blessed—our Family Support Specialist provided so much information about my son’s diagnosis and reminded me that anything is possible.
