Stronger & Happier Families (SHF)

SHF supports local families in understanding and effectively managing domestic conflicts and disputes related to family dynamics to disseminate constructive conflict resolution skills and strengthen family relationships.

FAITH collaborates with a network of licensed service providers in alternative dispute resolution, individual and family counseling, and coaching to provide services to local families through an Islamic lens. By incorporating cultural sensitivity into the program, parties involved are more likely to feel heard, respected, and understood, fostering a conducive environment for finding mutually acceptable resolutions.

FAITH collaborates with local Islamic centers to enhance the effectiveness of SHF services. Establishing partnerships with these organizations increases the visibility and accessibility of SHF services.
