Started in 1972, as a drop-in center for young people in the Village of Park Forest, it was given the name Aunt Martha's to suggest an atmosphere of concern and caring like one hopes to find in the home of a close relative. The Family Resource Center provides families convenient access to important health and human services in our community. The mission is to keep families with children suffering from emotional difficulties intact by addressing the unique needs of these families through information, training, advocacy and support. Catholic Charities, Diocese of Joliet, translates God's reconciling love into professional human services, advocates for a just and compassionate society and brings together members of the community, church, business, health care and government to develop effective responses to human needs. We commit to define these needs, seek solution, and call forth other resources so that those we serve are empowered to achieve for themselves satisfying and productive lives.
