Who We Are
Family Connections Center Inc was born from a chance encounter with a homeless youth in 2019, highlighting the growing population of unaccompanied houseless youth aged 16-24 in South Dakota and across the nation. Recognizing the lack of support for these vulnerable individuals, our nonprofit was established with a mission to empower youth to live independently.
What We Do
As a nonprofit, we aim to fill critical gaps in South Dakota, primarily in the Rapid City area, by providing housing options, supportive services, prevention programs, education, and community advocacy for the most vulnerable—especially youth, to foster lasting independence and well-being.
