Eckerd Connects
Family has always been at the heart of Eckerd Connects. When we were founded in 1968 by Jack and Ruth Eckerd, the legendary power couple was often asked what motivated them to start a non-profit in rural Florida. Their answer was always the same “Its the kids”
Today those words still hold true – but much like other families, ours has grown. Over five decades later with a presence in 21 states, our family of services has expanded to include Job Corps, workforce development, foster care, aid for the homeless, transitional services for troubled youth, and so much more.
