Family Resource Center History

Family Resource Center EventHow It All Started

Family Resource Center has a long and rich history that started right here in the Carroll community. Nearly 40 years ago, Carroll County Council for the Prevention of Child Abuse (CCCPCA) was organized by parents who recognized an unmet need…assistance for families to improve the safety of children in Carroll County. As the agency continually added new programs, CCCPCA later changed its name to Family Resource Center, a human services, non-profit corporation.

Family Resource Center Today

Under the umbrella of Family Resource Center’s Waiver Program, FRC’s services include SCL (Supported Community Living), Respite, CDAC (Consumer-Directed Attendant Care), HAB (Home-Based Habilitation), and IMMT (Interim Medical Monitoring and Treatment). Additional services offered through FRC include Crisis Child Care, Parent Time-Out, and Child Care Projects.

Our Goal

We are a team of caregivers dedicated to empowering families and individuals in need within our communities. We advocate for member independence, safety, growth, and purpose by providing guidance and critical resources. FRC’s Mission Statement.

Nearly 40 years after this agency began as Carroll County Council for the Prevention of Child Abuse, Family Resource Center’s broad range of services are now offered in 19 counties within Iowa.
