About
Our Mission
Partners For Strong Families exist to strengthen families by increasing access to excellent counseling and marriage resources.
Our History
Josh and Cassie Spurlock founded Partners For Strong Families in 2011 with a conviction that families are the building blocks of society. Strengthen families and you strengthen the whole community. This belief has been a driver for Josh and Cassie their entire married life.
The Spurlocks
Professionally Josh has spent his career as a marriage counselor helping families stay intact and parents be able to model healthy relationship for their children. As a family Josh and Cassie have served the community as foster parents for over 50 kids, and adopting 5 along the way.
Launching Partners For Strong Families was simply a continuation of the work Cassie and Josh were already involved in, with a goal of increasing the scale of the mission: To strengthen families by increasing access to excellent counseling services and marriage resources.
Expansion of Counseling Services
Since it’s inception in 2011, PFSF has been focused on serving communities in southwest Missouri. In 2017 an initiative was launched to expand counseling services nation wide through MyDevice video counseling sessions and AccessPoints.
MyDevice Counseling
MyDevice online video counseling services allow families in underserved areas across the country, with inadequate access to counseling services, to connect with a counselor on the internet connected device of their choosing, from the location most convenient for them.
AccessPoint Counseling
For those without a good internet connection or a private place to engage counseling from, we are expanding a network of AccessPoints. AccessPoints are physical counseling office locations where clients can come to receive counseling services.
At these locations, the counselor joins the session via video conferencing equipment. This allows clients access to specialists in the life area they need help in, even when there are not clinicians in the region to provide the service.
In-Person Counseling
Meet with one of our Christian counselors in a traditional, private setting at one of our physical locations. To set up in-person counseling, all you have to do is contact one of our physical locations in Springfield, Kansas City, or Columbia, Missouri.
