Families First of Florida provides Outpatient Counseling, Assessments, and Foster Care Services to the community.Owner and founder of Families First of Florida, Carolanne Patriaco, saw a need in the Tampa Bay area for intensive trauma focused services for the children in the child welfare system. She designed a foster care treatment program that provided children with trained foster parents and clinicians that understand the children’s trauma experiences and who are committed to helping these children integrate their trauma experiences into their lives and begin their healing journey.
