Founders
Future Generation Support Services was developed by Hope & Hope, a family that wants to bring a sense of independence to each member. FGSS was designed with a passion which would allow services to be delivered in a manner that is congruent with the philosophy, purpose, and goals of the organization.
Mental Health Skill-Building services provide training to enable individuals to achieve and maintain community stability and independence in the most appropriate, least restrictive environment.
Mr. and Mrs. Hope's name is true to the emotional and personal needs of individuals that can’t always speak or manage everyday decisions. They started this agency to assist others that are not always able to help themselves. Mrs. Hope thoughts are simple: "It is not always the fault of the many individuals that are unfortunate to be diagnosed with a disadvantage of not making clear decisions or able to handle the difficulties of everyday life; Whether it is a form of depression, bipolar, schizophrenia or any other disability, when someone is able to assist, show compassion, and give that person a since of “HOPE” the task is halfway complete." Mr. and Mrs. Hope stay involved, share concerns, suggest encouragement, as well as collaborate with staff to improve the needs of its members.
