Family Relations Program, Inc

(FRP)
A United Way agency that works to break the cycle of child sexual abuse through counseling and education to child victims of sexual abuse and their families, children and adolescents with sexual behavior problems, and adult
female survivors of childhood sexual abuse. In 2006, the agency provided direct services to 742 individuals.

Child sexual abuse is a crime of secrecy and shame, and FRP works to stop this silence within the family and the community. FRP's safe atmosphere makes it easier to talk about the devastating effects caused by the sexual
abuse of a child. It is within FRP's "healing community" that our families receive support and understanding and learn that they are not alone in their struggles. PO Box 904701
