Our Story
A Legacy Carried Across State Lines
In 2022, Kathleen Laskowski Myers brought her father's 1979 founding vision to Massachusetts — extending four decades of compassionate, family-centered mental health care to Acton and the surrounding communities.
1979 — The Beginning
Raymond T. Laskowski Founds FRA
With a deep commitment to family wellbeing, he established Family Resource Associates in Stratford, Connecticut — a practice rooted in clinical excellence and genuine compassion for families in need.
Decades of Growth
Building a Community of Healers
Over the years, he grew the practice into a multi-clinician team, expanding services to children, adolescents, and families across Connecticut with evidence-based, compassionate care.
The Next Generation
Kathleen Myers Steps Into Leadership
His daughter Kathleen Laskowski Myers — holding a Doctorate in Organizational Leadership Psychology — became Executive Director, carrying those founding values into a new era of growth.
2022 — Massachusetts
The Legacy Expands
Under Kathleen's leadership, FRA opened its Massachusetts office in Acton — bringing the same trusted, family-centered mental health services that have served Connecticut for over four decades.
Every family that walks through our doors carries a unique story. Our role is not to judge that story, but to help write its next chapter — one of healing, understanding, and hope.
