Since opening its doors in Fall 2018, The Front Porch has served more than 1,900 children through assessments and case management and welcomed nearly 6,000 individuals to family-centered events and programs.
On Thursday, November 6, The Front Porch hosted its Founder’s Day Fall Open House. The event honored those who laid the foundation for the organization, celebrated the collaboration of partner agencies, and welcomed guests to share a meal while exploring the work and impact of The Front Porch through presentations, lunch, and guided tours.
The Front Porch is a multi-agency resource center, designed to divert at-risk youth from becoming involved with juvenile court by linking them and their families to services. Click to learn more about The Front Porch.
