Our Staff

Although each division at CFC consists of only a handful of people, we believe and have demonstrated that a small agency can be more effective than a large agency.  The staff members at Child to Family Connections are members of the community and are able to connect with families, individuals, children, and other service agencies and organizations on a personal, familiar level.  

Karen Cross, Director

As Director of Child to Family Connections, Karen is responsible for running and managing CFC's day-to-day business, which includes direct supervision of the professional staff, recruitment and training, strategic development, and financial management. She has lived in the area since 1981 and raised her family here.  She has an MA in Counseling and Guidance from West Virginia University and a BA in Psychology from Allegheny College. She has over 14 years experience working with families and individuals in identifying and achieving their goals.  Karen's areas of expertise include adoption, foster care, mental health, and mental retardation.
