The Family Center, also known as The South Central Family Center, Inc., is an independent non-profit organization located in Columbia, Tennessee, and is dedicated to empowering individuals to break the cycle of poverty. The Family Center provides immediate hands on assistance, particularly with crises stemming from poverty. Our focus is to restore stability and to teach families how to solve problems, not solving the problems for them.
Common Threads is a not for profit thrift store affiliated with The Family Center. By selling donations at a very affordable price, we can financially support The Family Center programs.
