Description
Nevada County Superintendent of Schools sponsors the Family Resource Centers (FRCs).
They're intended to meet the needs of all families in the region, not just those whose children attend school at that location.
Each of the Family Resource Centers offers the following core services:
- Parenting Classes
- Lending Libraries for children and adults
- ASQ's
- Child Development Information and parenting support
- Playgroups
- Clothes Closet
- Computer support including printers and fax
- Food Pantry in San Juan Ridge
- Diapers
- Spanish speaking staff
- Information and referrals for children and parents
They help parents find support and services they need. They make referrals and can direct parents and help navigate community services. Services are free of charge and families are encouraged to drop in during operating hours.
FRCs are a comfortable, inviting space for parents and children, including changing tables, toys, rocking chairs, couches, and the like. They have support available for Spanish speakers and have a Parenting Education Specialist who offers classes and support.
If your family is in need of support please call them. Or, if you know of a parent who has questions about what is available in the community, please refer them to one of the PARTNERS Family Resource Centers.
