FAMILY POINT RESOURCES: 

FAMILY POINT RESOURCES needs some MOM volunteers to help 1st graders with reading on Tuesday afternoon between 3:15-4:15. Please consider volunteering to help these sweet kiddos out.

Family Point Resources programs rely on volunteers to be successful and help the staff support participants. It’s a great way for our kids to get hours helping out after school tutoring, playing sports, games and more. Both adults and kids need to complete the background check before volunteering.
