Sometimes families are very fearful of DCF (Department of Children and Families) being involved with family affairs. Please note that DCF has many ways to assist families in need. If you are looking for any type of assistance, please contact DCF to see what opportunities are available. They do a great job supporting families in need. Scan the QR Code to see what they can offer!
