    FATHER TIME of Keansburg
    South Jersey Families Re-Connected Coalition (SJFRC)

    We the members of Father Time make time in our schedule to meet weekly because we value our important and privileged role as fathers/ father figures, and recognize that the time we have to enjoy, and experience our children is finite. We believe that all fathers can learn and offer something in our organization.

    SJFRC supports families in Cumberland County and the Southern New Jersey area in improving basic literacy skills and increasing their workforce readiness as a means of achieving self-sufficiency.

    Career Gear
    Legal Information for Families Today (LIFT)

    From its inception in 1999, Career Gear’s earned a reputation for supporting men who are low income and entering the workforce by providing business appropriate clothing. Career Gear’s philosophy is simple but powerful: successful employment is a catalyst towards men emerging as fathers and leaders within their communities. Over the years, Career Gear has responded to the growing needs of men entering and re-entering the workforce and has become a multidimensional nonprofit serving the needs of its participants through three distinct programs.

    Legal Information for Families Today (LIFT) is a one-of-a-kind nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering unrepresented Family Court litigants with legal information and compassionate guidance. The significant stress and anxiety of Family Court involvement, where every case involves a fractured family and the well-being of a child, is compounded by the fact that more that 80% of the families in the system are there without a lawyer to represent them. LIFT’s services and referrals enable families to successfully advocate for themselves in the New York Family Court system and secure resources that help to promote their personal and children’s well-being and improve their economic outlook.

    Shiloh Community Development Corporation
    Family Life Services and Community Wellness Center
    Family Enrichment Network (FEN)

    The Shiloh Community Development Corporation’s Family Life Services and Community Wellness Center (FLS & CWC) connects families to resources and services to meet challenges, mitigate risk and increase the possibilities of positive outcomes. In partnership with stakeholders of the Trenton Historic Development Collaborative (THDC,) SFLS & FCWC provides outreach, assessment, counseling, case management, referrals, training, and resource development. The center develops and updates information on family support services and disseminates this information through the THDC stakeholder network. A web-based client database is used to document intakes and transactions to maximize coordination, communication, resource mobilization and planning among the THDC stakeholders.

    The vision for the The Family Enrichment Network (FEN) was created as collaboration between the YMCA of Salem County, Family Resource Network and the Salem City School District with Sharptown United Methodist Church as a valuable partner. Families in Salem County identify goals and our services help them achieve their goals by:

    – providing information & referral
    – guiding families in steps toward their goals
    – connecting families to free community events
    – case management services

    In our efforts, we promote self-sufficiency and child well-being by focusing on, strengthening and supporting the adults leading the family.
