Welcome to the Arab-American Family Support Center (AAFSC) Established in 1994, the AAFSC has grown to become one of the largest Arab-American social services organizations in the country, serving thousands of clients a year. AAFSC provides comprehensive social services to Arab-American immigrant families and children as they adjust to a new culture and navigate American laws and cultural norms. AAFSC addresses language barriers, encourages positive leadership, and promotes a stronger and more united Arab-American community. Since the events of September 11th, AAFSC has proven to be an even more integral and relevant institution for the voice and presence it has given to the Arab-American community by strengthening and expanding its programs in several critical areas - outreach, mental health, youth development, and legal services.
