Family Outreach Center, Inc. is a mid-sized organization in the mental health care field, based in Grand Rapids, Michigan, serving Kent County. It was founded in August 1979 by community leaders concerned about the deterioration of family life in Grand Rapids' inner-city neighborhoods and the limited access to mental health, child welfare, and substance abuse services for low-income residents and people of color. The center was created to provide mental health and family support services to underserved segments and to bridge gaps in the local human service delivery system. Its work targets individuals and families in Grand Rapids and the surrounding region who face barriers to accessing care. A notable development in recent years is a 2020 collaboration with the Harry K Foundation to support feeding efforts in the community. The organization operates as a community-based provider within the mental health care industry, focusing on outreach and support for underserved populations in Kent County.
