Community Family Clubs

Family is a very broad term in regards to our Community Family Club program. Family can include youth and their parents, aunts/uncles, grandparents, siblings, neighbors – any adult interested in mentoring a child.
How often does the club meet?
The club meets on average once a month and participates in a field trip or special event once a month. However, the group can choose to meet more or less frequently. In addition, we recommend an informal activity night and a family take-home project each month as well.
Who organizes the club’s meetings and activities?
You do. Someone from your community group will be trained to organize the club, however, the families run the club meetings. Each family member can help as much or as little as he/she prefers. For example, one meeting a parent or adult mentor might do crafts with the elementary-age youth. Another person might lead the group in song. Another might handle the check-in table. Everyone has talent and an opportunity to use that talent to help the children in their club.
