OTHER INFORMATION/LINKS:
CFC’s Counseling Program also supports a part-time Counselor at St. Joseph’s Neighborhood Center located at 417 South Avenue. St. Joseph’s offers free counseling, medical and dental care, and a host of supportive services for those who cannot afford even the lowest fee. While there is considerable demand for these services and, therefore, sometimes a waiting list, St. Joseph’s offers wonderful assistance to many in our community.
