Since 2001, Family Support Services of North Florida (FSS) has been the lead agency for family preservation, foster care, adoption, and extended foster care in Duval and Nassau counties. FSS, in partnership with other community organizations, including the Florida Department of Children and Families, has a primary goal to do everything possible to keep a child safely with their family. This is done through programs and support. When that’s not possible, we work to provide them with a safe and loving foster family and permanency through reunification or adoption. Additionally, we work with teens who turn 18 before being reunified with their parents or being adopted to help prepare them for their future.
