History
Family Touch was founded in 2001 to address the serious void in social and educational services in the rapidly increasing populations of Asian children, youth, and families in the Greater New Jersey and New York areas. Family Touch was established in Fort Lee, New Jersey, but has been relocated in Leonia since 2002. The organization was approved as a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization in 2004. In 2007, Family Touch established a branch office in New York City; in 2013, another branch was opened in Dallas, Texas to extend the organization’s impact to other communities. In 2018, Family Touch moved to Little Ferry, NJ in a new home.We have expanded our programs and counseling services to U.S.A. and the world from the year 2020 due to pandemic.
