Connecting for Children & Families

Description

CCF is designated by the Rhode Island Department of Education as Woonsocket’s Child Opportunity Zone (COZ), a full-service community school initiative that coordinates health, educational, and social services in high poverty schools.

• Quality childcare for working parents
• Parenting support services which encourage family engagement and strengthening family
• Early childhood interventions to improve school readiness
• Grades K-12 after-school/vacation/summer academic and social enrichment to improve academic outcomes
• Workforce Development, financial literacy, free income tax preparation (IRS VITA program), and basic needs assistance that promotes family-based financial stability; and community safety programs.
