Who We Are

FSW is one of the oldest and most comprehensive private, non-profit human service agencies in Connecticut. Annually, we serve thousands of individuals and families predominantly in the Greater Bridgeport region with some services offered throughout Connecticut. As an industry leader, FSW employs a holistic, integrative service delivery model to help low income families become economically self sufficient. Strong individuals create strong families. Strong families strengthen their communities.

We change lives and create brighter futures.

FSW is a member of the national Alliance for Children and Families and the Connecticut Council of Family Services Agencies, and is accredited by the Council on Accreditation of Services for Families and Children, Inc. FSW is also certified by the State of Connecticut as a licensed mental health clinic for both adults and children.

What We Do

FSW employs best practices to help people build on their strengths and capabilities, bringing positive, lasting change to their lives. With a wide array of behavioral health, youth services, family assets, literacy services and social enterprises at our fingertips, we are able to offer comprehensive services under our roof. We collaborate with over 75 local, regional and national public and private partners to ensure the needs of our clients are met.

Website Art

Website design elements were inspired by the paintings of Sandra Bromer, artist and FSW Board member, who saw in the Faces of Bridgeport, “the spirit, compassion, pride and love of life,” of its people, in spite of the many challenges they face every day. FSW is indebted to Ms. Bromer for sharing her work and talents with us. The original paintings grace the hallways of our headquarters.
