Citrus County Family Resource Center

Empowering The Community

The Family Resource Center isn't just a place—it's a promise. Through our well-stocked clothing and food rooms, and initiatives like the Bike to Work program and health clinic, we extend our hand in numerous ways.

At the Family Resource Center, we've anchored ourselves on providing comprehensive support to community members in need. At the heart of our mission lies the joy of giving. Our annual Christmas project ensures that every child feels the season's warmth, with donations driving the happiness of almost 2,000 children in our community every year.

Beyond providing immediate relief, we are dedicated to paving avenues towards lasting self-sufficiency. We're more than a center—we're a catalyst for change, helping individuals regain control, dignity, and hope in their lives.

About Our Programs

Essential Needs Addressed:
  • Resourceful Support: From our clothing room filled with quality garments, a food room stocked with essential staples, to providing tents for those experiencing homelessness, we ensure nobody lacks basic necessities.
    What do I need to bring?
    We believe in simplifying the process for those we serve. All you will need to bring is a photo ID or Birth Certificate for each one in the family.
  • At our Connections Outreach center: We serve breakfast and lunch daily, ensuring no one faces the day on an empty stomach.
Empowerment and Self-reliance:
  • Journey to Employment: With computers dedicated for job searches, our partnership with Career Source offers guidance for job coaching and resume crafting.
  • Bike to Work: We support sustainable transportation by providing bicycles free of charge.
  • Document Assistance: Recognizing the importance of identification, we assist out Connections Outreach members in obtaining vital documents like IDs and Birth Certificates.
Well-being and Personal Growth:
  • Health at the Forefront: Our medical clinic operates weekly for the uninsured, addressing basic medical needs to ensure everyone has access to medical care.
  • Dignity and Care: With free showering and laundry facilities, monthly haircuts, and case management in collaboration with local nonprofits, we champion the dignity, health, and progress of every individual.
