Overview
Who We Are
At House of Mercy Outreach Services, we are dedicated to family preservation and restoration. Our online family mediators and facilitators offer a safe space for families to heal and grow.
Our main aim is to keep children with their parents safely and prevent the need for them to be removed from their home by providing support and resources to address various challenges. We help families overcome those challenges and improve their ability to care for their children by connecting them with financial assistance, job training, parenting classes, and mental health & mediation therapy services.
Our focus is on strengthening family relationships and resolving conflicts to prevent the unnecessary separation of children from the families. We provide family mediation to improve communication, resolve conflicts, enhance parenting skills, and strengthen family bonds.
Our intervention plans are individualized and tailored to meet the specific needs of each family. We take a holistic approach to family mediation. We consider all aspects of the individuals involved to address the root causes of the conflict and achieve the best resolution.
