Family Resource Centers
Family Resource Centers help children, families and communities thrive. We provide the help and resources you need. Each resource center has unique services. We design each center to meet the needs of the community around it. In March, we referred families to more than 100,000 community resources. We also offered dozens of classes, support, community events and meetings.

Last week, we celebrated National Public Health Week. We also recognize National Child Abuse Prevention Month in April. We know violence prevention begins at a young age. That’s why much of our work to reduce violence in Pierce County focuses on families and communities. Family Support Partnership (FSP) promotes safe, stable, nurturing relationships and environments for all children. Healthy relationships and environments—fostered at home, school and in the community—are the building blocks of a child’s physical and emotional growth.

Latinx Family Advocacy Night provides families with great Pierce County resources
Every month, Latinx families in the Sumner, Bonney-Lake and White River communities gather for Latinx Family Advocacy Night. This month, Colectiva Legal del Pueblo provided a Know Your Rights 101 workshop. A dozen families learned about the current immigration legal system and how to:
- Fight deportation cases.
- Develop a family preparedness plan.
- Recognize the signs of an immigration raid.
- Talk about personal rights.
Family Resource Navigators Ida Cortes, Leah Haugen and Violeta Larin shared services and resources available through our system of Family Resource Centers.
At the same time, nearly 30 K–5 students enjoyed a STEM activity from our partners at KBTC and PBS KIDS.
