Four Rivers Family is launching parenting education classes. it marks a significant expansion in local educational opportunities for parents and caregivers of children. A partnership with GOBHI, Mid Columbia Center for Living, Columbia Gorge Education Service District, Hood River Prevention and Youth Think are behind the big changes.

This month, we're highlighting several important community initiatives and programs. From new opportunities for youth and adults to essential training for healthcare workers and resources for families, there's valuable information available for all. We encourage you to read on and find out how you can participate in or benefit from these offerings. Stay informed and get involved in making our community a better place for everyone.

Last month, Four Rivers Family Early Learning & Parenting Hub staff members and The Dalles Lions Club members joined efforts to fill over 75 backpacks with school supplies for local children entering Kindergarten this fall.
