The Learning Center for Families

United Way funds these programs:

Our weekly home visiting services for the Early Intervention and Early Head Start programs that provides parenting education to enhance the individual development and health of each infant and toddler.		$60,000
Total UW funding		$60,000

100% of United Way goes towards direct services for children and families.

We work with these United Way Agency partners:

Southwest Utah Community Health Center
Prenatal and well baby programs
Dixie Care & Share
Food bank and temporary housing programs
The Erin Kimball Memorial Foundation
Support for displaced abused women and children
Big Brothers/Big Sisters
Mentoring program
Doctors' Free Clinic
Health, mental health and dental clinics
Red Rock Center for Independence
Equipment and support for families with disabled members

Without United Way Funding, a homeless, teen mother would struggle to raise her child on her own. A toddler with autism would slip into their own unreachable world.

Human needs in Washington County:

Parents in crisis with young children need parenting assistance to ensure that their child reaches her fullest potential.
Families with infants/toddlers with disabilities need family support, therapeutic instruction and each other to help their child reach his fullest potential.
Children need to be "kindergarten ready" by the time they reach age five.
