We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve been selected as a recipient of an Early Years Initiative grant from Early Learning Indiana! We’re stepping up our efforts to provide crucial support for infants and toddlers in St. Joseph County, Indiana. earlylearningin.org/early-ye….
🎉 Exciting news! Thanks to special funding from the @CityofSouthBend, Family & Children's Center is offering free @SBTranspo bus passes & @Uber rides to participants in our parenting programs. This move breaks barriers to jobs & services and will boost their economic stability.
Roxanne Ultz, Executive Director, shares: "We are thrilled to be chosen for the Community Nonprofit Partnership Program. Our families work hard to be good parents, and this initiative is another step in our ongoing efforts to eliminate barriers and support their success."
Limited access to reliable transportation can restrict employment opportunities, increase job precarity, and limit access to essential services. It’s one of the most harmful hindrances to our families' economic mobility and stability. #transportationinsecurity
Change is hard, but it’s unavoidable in life. It’s important to find coping skills that can help you process these changes, prioritize your mental well-being, and accept the situations in life that we can’t control.
