Guest speaker: Roxanne Moore, Mt Community Resource Center, Community Bridges

There are 10 programs, 20 different sites and 22,000 people who are served in Community Bridges. Mt Community Resource is one of the five members of the family resource collective. Mt Community Resource has many different programs including: parent education, food distribution, emergency preparedness, counseling, housing, and parent education. The Positive Parenting Program (3P’s) is open to the public and is free to Valley families. WCI is also a program at MCR. They meet monthly. This year’s phone-athon was quite successful, and as a result, a counselor was hired.

 

Detective: 70 plus questions. Scott paired our septuagenarians up with other members. Karen fined Scott for referring to our distinguished members as geezers.

 

Drawing: Hey, Karen was selected again-- how coincidental!

 

The meeting was adjourned at 8:30 a.m.
