Families
Together is an innovative program for court-separated families
conducted by Providence Children’s Museum. Created in
collaboration with RI Department of Children, Youth and Families in
1992, Families Together provides permanency planning and therapeutic
visitation for children in state care and their families. Since
its inception, Families Together therapists have helped more than 2,000
families move toward permanency. In 2011, the program served 500 children and parents in 180 families. Learn more about
Families Together.
Families Together is growing!
Thanks to The Nina Foundation, Families Together will add a homelike
setting for family healing this winter. “Nina’s House” will provide
a warm, welcoming environment for Families Together staff to conduct some
of their therapeutic visits with children, their parents, siblings and
extended family.
The Museum is holding a virtual shower to supply Nina’s House for
serving families. Celebrate and support Nina’s House by
contributing a gift from the registry. All donations will benefit
children in foster care and their families as they work to strengthen
relationships and parenting skills. Thank you!
