Interim Executive Director Joan Bird and Chairman of the Board Chris Gardner of Newtown Youth & Family Services presides over the closing bell.

On July 1, 2007, Family Counseling Center of Newtown (FCC) and Newtown Youth Services (NYS) merged to form Newtown Youth & Family Services (NYFS). Both FCC and NYS were founded by Trinity Episcopal Church.

NYFS is a licensed, non-profit, mental health clinic and youth service bureau dedicated to helping children, individual adults and families achieve their highest potential. NYFS provides programs, services, activities, counseling, support groups and education throughout the Greater Newtown area regardless of ability to pay.

By merging, they expanded their ability to serve Newtown by pooling resources and creating a continuum of unprecedented services. In addition to providing outpatient counseling services to individuals, children and adults, families and groups, NYFS provides positive youth development programs and is home to the offices of the Newtown Prevention Council.
