During these uncertain times, the Connecticut Council of Family Service Agencies (CCFSA) wants the public to know that we are continuing to serve our clientele under the guidelines put forth by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) while ensuring the health and safety of our staff and our communities throughout Connecticut. Our staff is largely working remotely with our case managers and finding creative solutions to stay engaged with clients on a regular basis.
The need for some of our programs, such as Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) and Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) Program, have increased greatly during this crisis and we are fielding new referrals every day. The outbreak of this novel corona virus (COVID-19) has brought on new challenges and the CCFSA is working hard to meet them. The work of our agencies continues, as does our work of supporting them.
Call CCFSA at 1-800-505-9000 for more information. Help is available.

CCFSA collectively serves more than 100,000 families, making us one of the largest associations of community-based human services for children, adults and families. All members are nonprofit human service agencies. Together we form a collaborative statewide system of support for all phases of family life, working with government and philanthropy to meet our mission.
Connecticut Council of Family Services Agencies (CCFSA) Announces CEO Transition
Connecticut Council of Family Services Agencies (CCFSA) has announced that President & CEO Robert (Bob) Muro, has resigned from his position. During his tenure, Bob led the council through a period of growth, including the creation of Screening Connecticut’s Youth (SCY) program which was developed to screen children and adolescents throughout Connecticut for early detection of mental health challenges or trauma issues and, if necessary, refer them to behavioral health services.
"On behalf of the Board of Directors, we express our sincere gratitude to Bob for his nearly three years of dedicated service to CCFSA. The CCFSA Board of Directors is committed to navigating this leadership change smoothly and thoughtfully and will continue to share updates regularly,” said Candice Bohr, Chair of the Board of Directors.
In the meantime, CCFSA will continue to strengthen Connecticut’s families via our statewide provider network for multiple programs including: the Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) Case Management Program, the Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) Case Management Program, the Screening Connecticut’s Youth (SCY) Program, and the court-mandated Parent Education Program (PEP) for parents seeking a divorce in the state.
