A tremendous THANK YOU to everyone who came out to our Holiday Family Fun Night on December 8th, 2021!

Special thanks to all our amazing volunteer elves, Mr. and Mrs. Claus, and the United Way of Berks County for attending and gifting free books from its Ready! Set! READ! program (https://readysetreadberks.org)!

For those who attended the event and would like to have an electronic copy of the photo taken by Mrs. Claus, please email us at info@familyguidancecenter.com. Be sure to include a description of your child (or what they were wearing) so we can find the correct photo.

Family Guidance Center hosted a DRIVE-THRU Holiday Family Fun Event. Although COVID-19 changed our party plans, we were excited to still have a way to bring some holiday cheer to our community! A drive through our parking lot led to dancing elves, holiday music, and collection of a gift bag filled with goodies. Santa found some time in his busy schedule to bring all participants some holiday cheer!

The 2nd Annual Mind Your Health
September 2020

The Second Annual Mind Your Health was a go – VIRTUALLY!

Unfortunately, we felt it was in the best interest of both our guests and volunteers to cancel our in-person event due to the current COVID-19 guidelines. However, what do you do when you can’t share a great message in person? Share it virtually, of course! Visit our Mind Your Health page to view our message.
