Klingberg Family Centers

About Us

Klingberg Family Centers believes that each child is precious and deserving of a safe, caring home. We are also dedicated to the belief that “the family” is the best place for youngsters to live, learn and grow. These beliefs motivate our efforts to strengthen, equip and restore families, whenever possible, so that each child may receive the enduring love and guidance they need.

Klingberg Family Centers aspires to be an organization that engenders the pride and the commitment of our Board of Trustees, staff, volunteers, our community and constituency and the children and families we serve. We seek to create an environment where individuals are given the opportunity to contribute, learn and grow and where they feel respected, treated fairly, listened to and included. We strive to accomplish these goals in an atmosphere of interdependence, teamwork, good humor, love and encouragement.

Founded in 1903, Klingberg Family Centers is a private, nonprofit multi-service agency providing help to thousands of persons across Connecticut each year. Our goal is to extend hope and healing to children and families whose lives have been traumatized by abuse and/or neglect in its various forms, severe family problems and mental health issues. Through an array of group care, special education, foster care and community programs, children and parents are given the encouragement and skills they need to function more effectively at home, in school and in their community. Our main campus is located in New Britain, Connecticut.
