The Family Counseling Center has a long history helping community members in Gloversville and Fulton County. Established in 1976 as a result of a cooperative effort among community clergy, human service professionals, and civic-minded individuals - all of whom worked on a voluntary basis.

When we started, our mission was to answer the community's need for individual, marriage, and youth counseling, and we continue that work today, forty-five years later.Family Counseling Center began in the basement of the First Congregational United Church of Christ on East Fulton Street in Gloversville.
