Family Life Services is a community committed to meeting the needs of changing families by offering hope and healing to all who come through our doors. If you have a heart to serve at risk youth (ages 18 months - 16 years) by presenting them with the love of Jesus Christ, then we would love to invite you to volunteer with our program!
All lessons and activities are prepared and taught by our Child and Youth Coordinator. Volunteers are responsible for assisting the Coordinator with maintaining a safe and fun learning environment for children.

Mission Statement
Family Life Services helps single moms and their children build new futures through faith-based community.
Description
Moms build futures here
Nestled on the west side of Colorado Springs is an intimate community of single moms and their children. It’s a secluded village-a safe place carved out for courageous women who are building new life patterns and leaving old ones behind.
These are working moms who are also working hard at transformation. It’s gritty and challenging-and full of promise. That’s because God is at work in the village of Family Life and has been since its founding in 1942. Originally the Christian Home for Children, we refined our mission in the 1980’s to focus on single moms and their children.
In the security of their individual apartments, moms and their children thrive under the growing awareness that God is for them. And beside each mom, Family Life staff and mentors walk step by step, life by life, through the hard work of building a better future.
All of this makes Family Life Services practical. Hopeful. And a tangible community where families experience the love of God as his Spirit creates healthy families. It also makes Family Life Services a meaningful place to invest your talents, practical skills and resources for moms, their children and their futures.
