The services of the Family Support Network of Central Carolina come in many shapes and sizes, but they share a common purpose: to give families of children with special needs the support they need to care for their children – and for themselves.

The Family Support Network is fortunate to receive ongoing support from North Carolina’s Smart Start initiative, the N.C. Infant-Toddler program, and several combined grants, including funds from the N.C. Department of Social Services. In-kind services are provided by the Women’s Hospital of Greensboro. However, we still rely heavily on private donations to offer our services, and to increase our outreach to outlying counties.

Your donation to the FSNCC will touch the lives of many families whose children have been born prematurely or diagnosed with a disability, chronic illness, or other special need. Our staff is uniquely qualified to offer the empathetic support that is so critical to these families: our Coordinators are themselves parents of children with special needs who also have graduate degrees in special education. Our Board of Directors is made up of parents and professionals who serve children with special needs. Our office, located at Women’s Hospital of Greensboro, serves families throughout Guilford, Rockingham, Randolph, Alamance and Caswell counties.

All of our services are provided at little or no cost to families. Monetary donations are used to fund scholarships to Sibshops ($5 apiece), and to offset the costs of our many other services. Non-monetary contributions are also important: donations of food, beverages or paper goods are very helpful in enabling us to sponsor our social events. Donations of new or gently used baby items and equipment help us to stock Elizabeth’s Closet, our storehouse of supplies for needy families going home from the NICU. You may consider organizing a diaper drive through your church or another organization to help us maintain adequate supplies to share with families. Donations of time are also appreciated; call us to learn about Volunteer Opportunities.
