Supporting Families, Strengthening Communities, Sustaining the Future
At Clearwaters Family Services, our work is rooted in the belief that every family deserves support, every person deserves a chance to thrive, and every community has a role to play in creating a sustainable future. Through a unique combination of social services and environmental outreach, we meet families where they are—providing the tools, guidance, and education they need to grow stronger together.
From mental health counseling to life-skills workshops and water conservation advocacy, our programs are built to uplift people and protect the planet, creating ripples of positive change throughout the community.
“Real change starts at home—and flows outward.”
Family Counseling
We provide compassionate, confidential counseling services to individuals and families facing life’s challenges.

Whether it’s conflict resolution, parenting support, trauma recovery, or mental wellness, our goal is to create a safe, supportive space where healing and growth can take root. We believe strong families are the foundation of healthy communities.
Community Education
Empowerment begins with knowledge. Our community education programs are designed to inform, inspire, and equip individuals with practical life skills.

Environmental responsibility is central to our mission. Our Water Conservation Outreach program raises awareness about the importance of preserving our most precious resource—water. Through community cleanups, educational campaigns, school programs, and sustainable living workshops, we encourage families to take an active role in environmental stewardship. Together, we’re cultivating a culture of conservation for a cleaner, greener future.
