Our History
Our organization, founded by Lois Weidner, began in 1997 as Tri-City Life Center, Inc. with a small office in New Kensington. We started by supporting young pregnant women who were facing unplanned pregnancies. Our staff helped them work through issues such as unsupportive partners, pressure from family members, and uncertainty about the future.
We later began doing business as TryLife Center as we expanded into our current building on Wildlife Lodge Road. This space enables us to provide vast material assistance to our clients. We also expanded our reach, serving both moms and dads with children up to three years of age. In 2018, we added limited medical services.
In 2023, the Board of Directors decided to revitalize to better position the organization for a sustainable future. We restructured into a parent organization (FamilyLife Network, Inc.) with our programs separated out underneath the umbrella of the parent organization. This structure will not only allow for more autonomy within our programs, it will enable us to grow and add new programs in the future! Click here to read a FAQ about the revitalization process.
FamilyLife Network (formerly Tri-City Life Center, Inc.) is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. Updating our name with government entities takes time, and you may temporarily still see us show up as Tri-City Life Center, Inc. on certain documents or websites.
