Parent Support Services

Having children with someone who chooses to use abusive behavior can feel scary, isolating, and lonely.

At Caring Unlimited, we know that a child’s most valuable resource as they grow and heal from witnessing and/or experience abuse is their connection to the non-abusive parent.

Our Parent Support Program is available to help you learn more about how to nurture that connection.

The DV/CPS Liaison also offers information about dynamics of domestic violence, its impact when CPS is involved, and general domestic violence consultation with CPS caseworkers.
