The goal will be to make a connection between families and the many county services available to aid them. Several programs will be implemented throughout the community due to the Youth and Family Service program. A breakfast program will be started at the Wa-Nee schools. Licensed and subsidized child care will be encouraged. Latchkey will continue for students before and after school. McClung also looks forward to working with the teen pregnancy support group at the high school. Currently she is looking to recruit both facilities and volunteers for the various programs. A directory of the many services and agencies available to the public is being compiled, and is expected to be offered to the public in three months. Some agencies are distributing help at the outskirts of the city, such as WICK, which comes to the Brethren Church at CRS2. McClung hopes to see these programs become more accessible to all residents. In the downtown area local churches offer assistance. Open Door is sponsored at the Methodist Church. For pre-school children, parents can choose from Head Start, Ark Church, or the two nursery schools offered at the Presbyterian and North Main Mennonite Churches. Comp Fire is also a valuable source to children of aU ages.
