The new building has pleasant and welcoming areas to meet clients, a play space for children, and well coordinated work areas for each of the agency's programs. An Open House was held in September to show the community the new building. There has been a very positive response from the community with the capital campaign. We thank those who have contributed to the campaign and encourage others to consider contributing and investing in our future, the children. We are making progress in our goal to free up over one million dollars that is currently being spent on debt reduction.
Significant changes continue to occur in our society.
These changes result in the continuous growth in the demand for quality child care. The staff is continually challenged to meet these demands with creative and disciplined programs. They have met these challenges with a flexible and timely response to issues of diversity, welfare to work requirements, and an increase in two parent employment. As a Board member, I have had an opportunity to advocate for the children in this community.
