About Us

Family Care Network, Inc. (FCNI) was founded in 1987 with the purpose of creating family-based treatment programs as an alternative to group home or institutional care of children and youth. Today, FCNI operates as a Community-Based Organization, serving San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties through multiple programs designed to strengthen and preserve families and individuals impacted by trauma. Programs are delivered in partnership with public and private agencies and the community. FCNI’s guiding mission is “to enhance the wellbeing of children and families in partnership with our community.” FCNI provides over 20 distinct programs in four service divisions including: Family Stability and Support, Housing Support, Career and Education, and Healing Trauma. In 2014, FCNI became the first agency of its kind on the Central Coast to receive accreditation from The Joint Commission, a national accreditation agency with the highest standards for providers serving in the behavioral health field.
