Our Mission:

Our mission is to promote comprehensive, community-based systems of family supports and child development services integrated in the public school system

Core Strategies

The FRC model indicates that healthy child development and effective education begins with access to a continuum of services available in schools to all families. FRCs support families by serving in a central role in providing supports and services to meet their needs. The enabling legislation of the FRC program (C.G.S. Section 10-4o) provides the common framework of core components for FRCs to operate. Core components and the services of the FRC are designed to be flexible and adaptable to the needs and resources of a given community.
