About the Company

F

Family Service Association

Family Service Association (FSA) was founded by the Junior League and local faith-based organizations in the City of Riverside, who had growing concerns when they saw the deterioration of local military families in the early 50s. Since that time, FSA has grown to be one of the largest and most trusted, multi-service, non-profits in the Inland Empire.   

For nearly 70 years, Family Service Association has addressed poverty, hunger, and health, from infancy to older adults, in families and under-served communities. FSA’s motto is compelling, Family Strength Is Community Strength.   

Many of Family Service Association’s program participants are hard-working but still struggle to get by with low wages, fixed incomes, and the high cost of living in California.   

Through early education, trauma-informed mental health services, obtainable senior housing, support for home-bound individuals, safe senior/community centers, and nutritious meals for our seniors, FSA’s team members serve over 13,000 community members each year.
