Family Child Care (FCC)
Tel: 843/846-2270
Family Child Care (FCC) homes offer safe, high quality child care through high standards for quality and well-trained staff in a family/home atmosphere with a small group of children in either government housing or a private home off the installation. Care can include full day, part day, hourly or extended day care for parents that work non-traditional hours. Each professional FCC provider and their family must undergo a series of background screenings. The FCC provider must complete a comprehensive and extensive initial training, as well as on-going training. This program also provides the spouse of military dependents the opportunity to operate their own business while remaining in their home with their own children. The FCC professional provides much needed quality service to children and families from the military. Download FCC Referral List [ click here ] |

Our counselors are trained in the dynamics of abuse in order to assist in protecting victims and support families in need of assistance.
Services include information on spouse/intimate partner and child abuse, victim advocacy, counseling for individuals, couples and children, as well as support groups for men and women. These services are provided, free of charge, for those seeking help. Additionally, classes on stress management, anger management, child and teen parenting, financial management and building self-esteem are offered to educate individuals in dealing with stressful situations.
We encourage anyone experiencing abuse to seek help immediately. Research shows that the earlier help occurs the sooner families can make positive changes. Research also indicates that without assistance abuse problems persist and become more unbearable over time. Read more  |
