Relationships to other agencies

Center for Family Services has working relationships with many other
organizations. Referrals are made whenever a client may be in need
of additional services. A few of these organizations are the New Jersey
State Department of Child Protection and Permanency, the New Jersey
Department of Human Services, Boards of Social Services, Robins
Nest, Head start and Family Success Centers.

Strengths, Trends and Challenges

A challenge I see is that the number of organizations are increasing.
Since most human service organizations, including Center For Family
Services, rely on donations and grants for funding, the money
received may be limited and might cause a competition for the
agencies.
