Healthy marriages lead to healthy families, and healthy families are the foundation of a healthy, vibrant community. But, modern life places enormous strain on marriages and families, and the results can be catastrophic. Families Matter exists to establish a united, sustained communitywide effort to strengthen and restore marriages and families in Memphis and Shelby County.
Families Matter is working toward Strengthening Families, Changing Lives and Transforming Memphis.
