Welcome to Parsons Child and Family Center. Our commitment to serving children and families spans 175 years. On December 2, 1829, concerned for the welfare of all children, we opened our doors to our first child. Today, we still have the same concerns for the welfare of children and go beyond to address the mental health and special education needs of children and families in our communities. Please explore our array of services and programs, as well as our extensive history over eight generations.
