Decades of Strengthening Families

Getting started with Safeway Family Services is straightforward. First, we schedule a free consultation at our Bridgeport office or by phone. We discuss your specific situation, goals, and needs. Next, we explain all service options and funding pathways, including Connecticut DDS waivers. Then, we create a personalized plan. Finally, we match you with our most appropriate trained staff member. We handle all coordination with support coordinators and state agencies, making the process seamless for Bridgeport and Fairfield County families.
