"I refer many families to Family TIES and repeatedly receive excellent feedback on how helpful they are. I enjoy working with their staff and find them to be outstanding in areas such as Advocacy and Parent Support. I will continue to refer my consumers to them, working as a team.

"I want to extend a very big 'Thank You' to all of you as an agency and specifically to Andrea Lalen-Kasten from the State of Nevada, Division of Mental Health and Developmental Services, for all the critical referral information provided to us to assist an individual that we support. All the information was new to our staff and will greatly assist this individual that needs extensive assistance. Thank you for your time, information and care in this case!!"

"My daughter Karen was diagnosed with cerebral palsy when she was 18 months old. Since this time, our journey has had many ups and downs. Navigating the system has been very complicated, mostly due to the lack of bilingual services. About 5 years ago I attended a Milagros Escondidos Support Group and met a Family TIES’ representative. Since that day, with every obstacle I encounter, Family TIES has been there to help me - by giving me parent support, and important resources. I am very thankful to Family TIES for their assistance which has lightened my burden and given me hope. They have shown me that Karen does have a bright future ahead! I will be forever grateful to Family TIES.”
