Volunteers and Contributions
People experiencing divorce often have to endure the grief and hard choices that follow all by themselves. NFRC is committed to creating a community of support and caring, but we need your help to continue to do so.

As a private, non-profit organization, we depend on contributions to support our programs for children, young adults, and parents. Our model of prevention and support plays an important role in the formation of nuclear family and community partnerships.

We gratefully acknowledge and appreciate the individuals and organizations that have generously supported our Center, both through financial contributions and with their time and energy. It is through their help that we are able to continue to reach out to families, improve the lives of children, and inform the community about the many aspects of divorce.
