Bottom Line
A community is comprised of thousands of family units. In the same way one person in a family can damage
the name of the entire family, one family in a community can affect the reputation of our 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.
