Support for Families at the NPS Family Resource Center
The NPS Family Resource Center (FRC) provides a variety of services to support the healthy growth and development of families. This free program is open to mothers, fathers, grandparents, home daycare providers, and anyone caring for children. Participants have the opportunity to learn about child development, connect with other families, and grow together.
Ways to support your child at home
To help your child thrive academically and personally, we found valuable resources to support their reading, math, Social, Emotional, and Intellectual Habits. You can find these resources by using the link below:
