Counseling<br />

& Family<br />

Services<br />

In 1970, <strong>VCS</strong> began its service to the community by providing a two-pronged<br />

approach to changing lives: recruit, train and supervise volunteers who in turn,<br />

provide counseling services to court-referred clients. Since that time, Counseling<br />

and Family Services has been the cornerstone of the agency, pioneering the<br />

innovative use of professionally trained and supervised lay people to provide<br />

counseling for many other people who suffer from a wide range of serious social<br />

problems. The objective of the Counseling and Family Services programs is to<br />

increase the availability of accessible and affordable counseling services for the<br />

entire community.<br />
