LUK Families Connected Family Resource Center

The LUK Families Connected Family Resource Center is a supportive, multicultural resource for North Central MA families. We are here to provide a welcoming environment for local individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, including Autism Spectrum Disorder, as well as their families and caretakers.

With walk-in hours, bilingual Spanish-speaking staff, and dedicated Navigators, LUK Families Connected is here to help your family navigate developmental and disability services. Get referrals, help navigating services, community resources, and more, even if you’re not involved with the Department of Developmental Services (DDS).

Families Connected also hosts many events for our clients and their families to relax, have fun, and build a supportive community of people who have similar experiences. These events are free for our clients and their families, as well as other DDS families. Find these events on the LUK Events Calendar, and register for upcoming events here. We also post about upcoming events on the LUK Facebook Page.

The Family Resource Center is located at 99 Day Street, Fitchburg, MA. Follow this link to get directions.
