The Family Resource Center of North Mississippi continues to spread their wings across North Mississippi.
This spread is an outreach to make services conveniently available to all areas so that families in all areas can have available the educational tools for healthy families and family relationships, said a press release from the organization.
FRC partners with the Mississippi Community Education Center to administer the Families First for Mississippi across the entire state.
Among the recent regional openings of FRC facilities is the one in Clarksdale. Located in the MDHS building, the facility has already garnered the support and partnership of many of the local agencies, said the press release.
FRC partners with many other agencies in the state to supplement, boost and expand services for youth development, parenting, workforce and job readiness, and for making online high school education to students at risk of dropping out or who need a means to earn a high school diploma other than through the traditional school system.
On April 20, FRC hosted a “Meet and Greet” event to bring the partners together to share objectives, plan for future program sharing and to coalesce the various groups. The event brought together legislators, governmental agencies, faith-based groups and non-profits.
