S:4 E01 It Takes A Village: The Vital Role of Family Resource Centers


Listen Later

In honor of Child Abuse Prevention Month this April, we want to highlight the vital role of Family Resource Centers (FRC). These centers serve as a lifeline for families, providing essential resources, programs, and services that uplift and empower. From parenting classes to mental health support, FRCs help families navigate challenges and build a foundation for lasting success and well-being.

Join Paola Hernandez for an interview with Dr. Mario Venegas, Director of the Arvin Family Resource Center; Melissa Vittoria, Director of the Kernville River Valley Family Resource Center in Lake Isabella; and Isabel Gutierrez, Coordinator of Student and Family Support Services for the Richland School District as they share their firsthand experiences of growth, healing, and transformation in the families they have served. 💙
