Welcome to our web site!

We're so glad you came by to visit our web site. The Center exists to make life better for children and families. Click the links on the left to review our mission and scope, our history and our training objectives.

On one of this site's sub-pages you will be able to read in detail about the model of School-Based Family Counseling. On another you will be able to read Counseling Works!, a collection of case stories written by USF Center counselors. And please take a moment to review the Disastershock Handbook which contains invaluable information for responding to crises of all kinds, from minor to immense.

Elsewhere you will find information on the international conferences sponsored by the Center: the annual Oxford Symposium in School-Based Family Counseling, now in its fifth year, and the Council for Human Rights of Children, chaired by Cloe Madanes, H.D.L.
