Families 1st Partnership has operated as a nonprofit organization since January 2019 and serves as the backbone organization for collaborative efforts in west central and southwest Nebraska.
The focus of the collaborative partners is to prevent children and at risk youth from going into higher systems of care.
"With this goal in mind, Families 1st Partnership encourages other local agencies in their work and offers support in the form of trainings or financial assistance to the agency's participants," the agency said. "In addition to financial support to stabilize families, there is sponsorship of parenting classes and family activities."
Families 1st Partnership receives grant funding from Nebraska Children and Families Foundation.
