Family Services of Davidson County is shutting down its clinical counseling and youth services programs as the agency faces financial challenges.
In a Facebook post, Family Services officials said cutting back on the programs was intended to ensure the long-term sustainability of the organization.
The nonprofit’s decision was not based on federal cutbacks.
The Hattie Lee Burgess Home, which offers 24-hour temporary residence for domestic and sexual assault survivors, will remain open.
The youth services program emphasized wellness and non-violence. Last week, Davidson County’s Juvenile Crime Prevention Council issued a request for proposals for programs designed to address behavior problems and reduce delinquency.
The closure of the two Family Services programs is effective June 30.
