A pair of local nonprofits formed a partnership to provide the families they serve with better child care and early childhood education resources.
Grand Rapids-based United Methodist Community House said last week that it is partnering with Family Promise of Grand Rapids to expand wraparound support and resources for families with children in the UMCH Child Development Center.
“Family stability is extremely important for children to find success,” said Carla Moore, chief operations officer at UMCH. “We understand from years of research how much critical development is happening while students are in our care. We want to ensure their environment is optimized, which will help to set them up for success later in life. This partnership looks at the family as a whole and helps to provide families with the tools they need to be successful.”
