WHAT WE DO COMMUNITY CRISIS RESPONSE
Community Crisis Response
Family Service League has a longstanding record of effective response in times of community crisis. Our staff provided trauma therapy to families and co-workers in the aftermath of the shootings at the Montclair Post Office in 1995. We provided free crisis and grief counseling to dozens of families in our area affected by the loss of loved ones following the World Trade Center attacks, and we continue to offer free career guidance through the Career Breakthroughs program for individuals still unemployed and under-employed as a result. Most recently, Family Service League assisted families displaced to Essex County after Hurricane Katrina in helping to meet their needs and help them relocate to new communities. The staff is prepared and committed to responding immediately and effectively if and when a crisis affects families in our area in the future.
