"As I make my way to the exit and the next chapter in my life, I could not be more excited about the future that lies ahead for Family Centers, the people we serve, and my extraordinary colleagues who will continue to carry on the transformational work of this treasured institution. My heart will always reside at Family Centers, and I will remain the bleachers cheering on the team."

As of November 25, Family Centers' 60 Palmers Hill Road offices have moved to 986 Bedford Street in Stamford to accommodate the organization's continued growth. Situated in the heart of downtown and convenient to public transportation, the new location makes the organization’s services more accessible for the city’s children, adults and families.

At its annual World AIDS Day Luncheon on December 3, Family Centers’ Stamford CARES program honored Rev. David Van Dyke with the Shawn M. Lang AIDS Warrior Award. During the height of the AIDS crisis in the 1980s, Van Dyke was a staunch advocate for those affected by the disease, regularly opening the doors of his church for HIV/AIDS support groups and educational seminars.
