Family Strengthening

About the Program

Center of Life continues in its commitment to strengthening families in Hazelwood and other under served communities. This year, COL organized regular meetings with block-club leaders, community activists, local pastors, business owners and local universities. Through these gatherings, needs and resources are brought together to empower the heads of households with practical education that can be applied to their everyday experiences.

Goals

  • Educating and enabling parents to help children with homework.
  • Connecting underserved communities with family resources in and outside of the Greater Hazelwood Area.
  • Connecting adults with continuing education opportunities.
  • Providing strategies for better wealth management.
  • Improving neighborhood safety and addressing safety concerns.
  • Asserting the Civil Rights of people who reside in underserved communities.
  • Providing entrepreneurship opportunities.
