Programs: There are three program areas; Family Literacy, Family Stability, and Family Wellness. The Family Literacy program addresses the educational needs of both parents and children; the Family Wellness program provides parents with the tools and resources to create a healthy home environment; and the Family Stability program provides emotional support, assistance and material resources when a family is most in need. We continue to respond to the critical need our participants face for services that can secure them a place in the economy and enrich their lives.
