We Invite You to Support the Toby Center Mission

Did you know that thirty percent of children needing supervised visitation time are unable to have this precious and necessary time? Each month, you can now sponsor a child who cannot see a parent because there is no available funds to pay for visitation services.

Friends,

Did you know that thirty percent of children needing supervised visitation time are unable to have this precious and necessary time?  For those with such court orders, there is little available support for these services.

There is no well of financial support for providers as the Toby Center.  In 2020, the Toby Center received its first grant of $25,000 from the Children’s Services Council of Palm Beach County.  However, those monies could not support area families for more than four months. Increasingly, since our founding in 2010, the Toby Center has been expected to provide these child reunification services throughout Florida.   That is because our service model works.

Yet, there is little regular support to help keep our mission above water. In this pandemic period, our revenues are only 70% of pre-pandemic and we are operating at a deficit exceeding $2500 monthly. We need your help and are so happy to now introduce options of support that will also benefit you! Choose to sponsor a child each month!   Donate $100 monthly to help us afford our mission! Select a level of support that you can afford!  Click here for details!  Thank you so very much for caring!  Please support us! 

Sincerely, Dr. Mark Roseman, Founder/CEO

Why Support the Toby Center?

Since 2008 when we first came to Florida, supervised visitation services were folding as the economy turned. Dr. Roseman brought his experience managing nearly 40 funded supervised visitation programs nationally. With few donors, the Toby Center absorbed the expenses of many families in Broward and Palm Beach County. Roseman invested much of his own capital and services in Florida to save those families where high conflict between parents existed and which the County Courts felt needed the most help.

Few funders have stepped forward to assist. Parents have had to pay for their visitation, therapy, and mediation needs, often in additional to high legal and court costs, and child support. 

You may easily realize that when a couple separates, so does disposable income. Life becomes very difficult. Dr. Roseman knows from his personal and professional experience.

Now, your tax deductible gift of support will enable a child and their parents more opportunity to develop a closer bond necessary for improving the child’s emotional and also physical outcomes.

Every contribution will extend the frequency and time that a child needs with a non-custodial parent. Your tax deductible contribution will supplement the delivery costs of services and permit a child to have a court ordered and affordable visitation, therapy for reunification and a strengthened relationship.

The Toby Center philosophy is clear. “When adult clients feel stronger, clearer and emotionally healthier during the transformative and traumatic period of separation and divorce, then children will become happier, better adjusted and thrive. This is our aim.”

Why
Donate to the
Toby Center?

Research has shown that with involved parents, a child will be less prone to alcohol and drug abuse, greater self esteem, lower bullying and behavioral disorders, increased social skills.

Additionally, the Federal Department of Health and Human Services Office of Child Support Enforcement finds when a father is more involved in their child’s life, there will be fewer out of wedlock births, less juvenile crime, less bullying.

Testimonials

Both my attorney and I think you your firm has done a remarkable job assisting my visitation with my son, (Troy-Anonymous). When I first came to the Toby Center, I felt completely isolated in my divorce. The Toby Center threw me a lifeline and caused me to believe that there was hope for me and my children after this terrible tragedy. Thanks for all your caring

In a sea of difficulties, it was so comforting to hear your voice and willingness to be of help. thank you.
Marcia
Mother
I am so glad to see my children fairly regularly under this court order. I don’t have the money I need to pay for these services often, though.
Darryl
Dad
It is time to stop alienating kids from their parents, and the real world. Instead of pushing kids farther from their parents, we should be coming up with ways to unite them; giving them a sense of what is it like to be a family. The Toby Center will be able to offer all of this and they truly believe that the best parent is both parents. I must admit that after going through what I have, I completely agree with them, and fully support their wonderful cause.
