Family Resource Centers 

 

Fighting Back Partnership has four (4) Family Resource Centers (FRC) in Vallejo, which are conveniently located in neighborhoods to serve families with children 0-18. The FRCs offer support services to families in their own neighborhoods, help families to avoid homelessness and prevent child abuse. The project aims to improve outcomes for both families and communities. Each FRC brings together services and activities that educate, enhance skills, and promote healthy choices for families.

Each FRC site has its own unique culture and focus, but each offers comprehensive case management services that have three objectives: (1) meet basic needs like rental assistance and food, (2) increase financial success through sound money management practices, and (3) support family success through parent education.

These objectives are achieved through:

  • Linking families and individuals to basic needs resources in their communities
  • Benefits screening and application assistance for public benefits
  • Limited emergency financial assistance for rent, utilities, food, and clothing
  • Financial counseling services that emphasize budgeting and savings
  • Parent education and skill building to minimize child abuse and neglect
  • Parent supports to increase engagement in their children’s education
  • Holiday assistance that includes toys for youth and resources for homeless families

Outcomes

As of July 1, 2018,

  • Over 500 low-income, under resourced families and individuals built more stable and successful futures by partnering with the FRC  
  • Over 50 households received parent education to enhance their parenting skills through age-appropriate discipline practices, nurturing principles, and an increased understanding of child development from infancy through the adolescent years
  • The FRC prevented over 100 at-risk families from either becoming homeless or assisting homeless families with acquiring new homes.
