Bottom Line
A community is comprised of thousands of family units. Just as one person in a family can damage the name of the entire
family, one family in a community can affect the reputation of an entire city and region. The Center will provide resources
and support in parenting, marriage, etiquette, community service, time management, work ethic, counseling, and other
support services and training opportunities.
