Bethel Community Foundation (BCF), Inc. was the first CINS/FINS (Children In Need of Services/Family In Need of Services) Neighborhood Partner in the State of Florida. Since January 2004, Bethel has successfully served over 1000 youth and families. We believe our unique blend of traditional and non-traditional approaches allows us to meet families where they are.

Also included in our core mix of services are Youth Resiliency Classes, Anger Management Classes, Parental Support Group and Summer Employability Skills Training for youth 14 – 17 years old.
