Information on this page is offered on an informational and referral basis only, not a recommendation by the Roanoke Police Department. Parents must evaluate programs and their suitability for themselves and their children. Inclusion of an organization or service provider is neither an endorsement nor a guarantee that services will be provided. Some providers and organizations have fees and charges for their services and those are the responsibility of the individual, parent, and/or guardian. Listed counseling services, centers, hospitals, shelters, and treatment facilities can work  with children and teens individually along with their families. Parents must call and inquire about programs, fees, qualifications, and methods of payment accepted. 

Texas Family Code: Chapter 151. Rights and Duties in Parent-Child Relationship states that parents have the duty of care, control, protection and reasonable discipline of their children. They have the duty to support the child, including providing the child with clothing, food, shelter, medical care, dental care, and education. The duty of a parent to support his/her child exists while the child is an unemancipated minor and continues as long as the child is fully enrolled in an accredited secondary school in a program leading toward a high school diploma until the end of the school year in which the child graduates. A parent who fails to discharge the duty of support is liable to a person who provides necessities to those whom support is owed.
