About AFS

A family-rooted organization built from lived service.

All in the Family Services was established to formalize and expand a lifestyle of service into a community resource for vulnerable families.

Mission

AFS provides connections to relationships and resources for vulnerable families so they can develop support networks and build capacity for stability.

Founder Belinda Long has served people in need throughout her teenage and adult life, first in Louisiana and now in the Collin County area, where she has lived since 2014.

Growing up, her family experienced extreme poverty, including homelessness. That experience shaped her understanding of the emotional and spiritual toll instability can take on children and parents, and the difference it makes when someone offers a hand up, not a handout.

In 2017, Belinda established All in The Family Services Inc. to better leverage community resources and formalize support. In 2019, AFS began targeted services in Allen, Texas at Chaparral Townhomes.

Service model

Bringing support directly to apartment and motel communities.

Services are offered on site, reducing transportation, childcare, and access barriers.
Children and parents can participate in support programs in a familiar, reachable environment.

Fuel the work

Help families access the support they need before crisis becomes permanent.
