The Family Place Utah was established in 1982 as a small facility in Logan, Utah, known as The Child & Family Support Center. It began with the goal of providing a safe shelter for children involved in crisis situations. Since then, it has expanded to meet the needs of all families in their community. The Family Place Utah is a non-profit whose mission is to strengthen families and protect children. They have locations in Hyrum, Logan, and Smithfield and provide services to Cache, Rich, and Franklin counties. They provide essential services including therapy, free educational classes, Kids Place emergency and respite care, and The Starfish Children's Shelter.
They are also a part of the Utah Association of Family Support Centers. This means they are one of 11 family support centers in Utah that provides clients with 24-hour crisis & respite nursery, a 24-hour information and referral service, and parenting and youth education programs. They continue to do all they can to “make a difference for that one.” For more information visit thefamilyplaceutah.org or call 435-752-8880.
