Family Support Coordination

We provide comprehensive assistance and support for 90-120 days, whether to help you stay in your home, find employment, or work on your parenting skills. We assist with applications and follow up with agencies to ensure you get the support your family needs. From housing to kindergarten readiness, we've got the connections to help your family thrive! Offered in Cochise, Mohave, and La Paz counties, contact familysupport@cplc.org.

Sensory Screening

Screenings are conducted in a dark, quiet environment and take about 15 minutes per child. Each child is assessed to identify any vision or hearing challenges. If we identify any reason for concern, we will refer your child to a pediatrician or other specialist for further evaluation and treatment. For more information or to register contact happyhealthykids@cplc.org. Available only in Phoenix.

Drug Abuse Prevention for Teens

Using the Safety First curriculum, we cover topics surrounding teenage drug use and dependency that boost safe decision-making skills. Over six virtual sessions, children aged 11-18 learn valuable information about the risks and effects of drug use, and resources that can help if they are ever in need.
