About Us

There for you at Every Turn

The Department of Children and Families  (DCF), Division of Family Community Partnerships, funds a statewide network of over 57 Family Success Centers as "one-stop" shops that provide wrap-around resources and supports for families before they find themselves in crisis and during crisis. Empower Somerset was proud to be the recipient of the DCF grant to open the very first, and only, Family Success Center for Somerset County. ​
