Mission: Help families, children and seniors to become and remain self-sufficient, healthy and socially responsible.
Programs: Senior commodities - a program geared to augment the diets of people ages 60 and over. So often, seniors lack variety in their diets and this program can help round out nutritional needs with delicious food items. Food packages do not provide a complete diet, but rather are food sources of the nutrients typically lacking in the diet of the target population. Through the commodity supplement of food program we are able to provide seniors with two bags of groceries per month.
the differential response (dr) family support team works together with clark county child protective services (cps) to assess families who are in need of community support and assistance. The dr program is designed to help families (all referred through the child abuse and neglect hotline) break the cycle of cps involvement without removing children. The differential response team makes home and school visits based on the reports made to the cps child abuse and neglect hotline and offers various types of assistance based on the nature of the report. During these assessment visits, the family may be referred to other services in our local area, but most families benefit from this type of early intervention. Our assessment focuses on the family's unique strengths and needs. Our goal is to reduce the risk of future cps involvement and provide unique family interventions that allow the family to move forward independently and productively and avoid future cps investigations. The program assists approximately 60 families per month.
