The Family Resource Center is designed to serve and support families with children birth through age five. The Family Resource Center is funded by First Things First with United Way of Tucson and Southern Arizona serving as the lead grantee, and implemented in partnership with Casa de los Niños, Easterseals Blake Foundation, Make Way for Books, Parent Aid and UA Community Extension Programs. All programs and activities are free.
Programs
Programs at the Family Resource Center will include fun, hands-on activities that encourage interaction between children and their grown-ups. These parenting activities are designed to support the children’s development, provide information and resources to families, and nurture their sense of community with other parents.
Parent education courses will also be offered across a variety of topics from positive discipline to supporting children through divorce. Childcare will be offered during these courses with some workshops being available virtually.
Finally, the center will offer more intensive support for families who need help in navigating complex systems to provide for their children.
Classes are held in the Family Resource Center at Robles Elementary.
Register for classes at Pima County Parenting Coalition.
