FamilyWise case managers visit hundreds of families across Hennepin and Ramsey counties. We teach specific parenting skills and we help families achieve or maintain a stable, healthy home life.
Questions families ask us range from how to find safe, low-income housing to how to evaluate summer programs for older kids to how to cook beans.
We need your help to create a directory! We are looking for a directory that can be continuously updated and used by our case managers with our family’s needs in mind.
Steps to Get Started:
- Survey staff. The objective is to get a comprehensive list of frequently asked questions and resources needed.
- Find the resources and research answers.
- Develop a consistent communication format.
- Present draft to FamilyWise; receive feedback & revise as necessary.
- Create searchable, sustainable directory.

Mission Statement
Strengthening Families by Promoting the Safety, Stability, and Well-being of Children.
Description
FamilyWise is a local nonprofit that helps our community’s most vulnerable children and families. Many of these families come to us with a history of poverty, domestic violence and homelessness. Your volunteering and financial support helps break this cycle of despair and gives them hope for a better future.
Our goal is to promote social change by strengthening families and the community through programs that:
- Educate parents on skills needed to lead stable lives and provide safe homes for their children.
- Empower families to achieve self-sufficiency and to advocate for themselves and their children.
- Enrich the lives of children, youth and families, enabling them to lead healthy, productive family lifestyles.
"Volunteering at FamilyWise opened my eyes to a whole new world where children and families from all walks of life are treated with dignity and respect. It made me feel good to know that I was helping contribute in a meaningful way to the greater good."
