Families Celebrate the Arrival of Spring

Hundreds of parents and children participated in a Spring Fling at Project Self-Sufficiency.

The Family Success Center at Project Self-Sufficiency recently hosted a Spring Fling for hundreds of children and their parents at the agency’s Newton campus. Participants were treated to crafts, dinner, an Easter Egg hunt, photos with the Easter Bunny, St. Patrick’s Day-themed games, and other activities courtesy of agency staff members and a host of community volunteers, including the Newton High School Interact Club and the Kittatinny High School cheerleaders.

“The Family Success Center offers parents and children a place to gather, laugh and have fun,” noted Deborah Berry-Toon, Executive Director of Project Self-Sufficiency. “We are very grateful for the efforts of the Family Success Center Parent Advisory Board and all of the other volunteers who worked so hard to host this party for our participants and their families.”

The Family Success Center at Project Self-Sufficiency is a program of support which includes parenting skills training, economic self-sufficiency services, family activities, legal education services, information about health and nutrition, referrals, advocacy and other services. All activities are free and open to the public.
