Keys to Supporting Families

Keys to Supporting Families addresses client assistance and nutrition support with baby supplies such as diapers, strollers, formula, and baby food. Through the provision of items/supplies, we are able to teach families about their proper use and allow their finite resources to be used to cover other costs and needs. We are working to add Adopt A Grandparent (intergenerational mentorship) and Parent Coaching programs.

Because of our expertise, we know what families may need and can help them navigate all the “baby stuff” being marketed to them.   Through our partnerships with WIC, local food pantries/distribution sites, and other agencies working on food security, FKHSC has become the “go-to” agency for food assistance for pregnant women and infants. The Coalition provides specialty formulas, breastfeeding support, and, as-needed, additional nutritional support. 

Our team began providing contactless delivery service because of COVID-19 to ensure families could get the supplies they needed without having to risk exposure to themselves or their children.

Keys to Hope

Keys to Hope bereavement program is designed to offer comfort, understanding, and assistance to Monroe County families as they cope with the loss of a pregnancy or child. Our dedicated team members understand the grief that comes with this experience. We recognize that each family’s experience is unique, and we tailor our support to meet the individual needs of every person we serve. While nothing can erase the pain of losing a child, Keys to Hope offers a supportive community to walk beside you during this difficult time.
