The Family Resource Center is a part of the multi-disciplinary team
approach of Community Partnership for Homeless to provide at-risk youth
ages 5-17 and their parents with a continuum progressing from front-end
opportunities for success to deep-end recovery linkage efforts. The
Family Resource Center seeks to work with 250 children and 50 parents
who currently reside in one of Community Partnership’s two Homeless
Assistance Centers. The neighborhood partners, staff, administrators,
and most importantly, the participants themselves have enthusiastically
received the implementation of this program. Services in this project
are provided to all races, ethnic genders and to persons with
diversified physical abilities in three languages (English, Spanish, and
Creole).
