WE CARE about parents’ concerns.
WE CARE about your child’s education.
WE CARE about the safety of your household.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and movement away from the traditional school schedule, The Salvation Army has looked at what it means to “meet human needs”, a goal that comes directly from our mission statement, and believes that a child care program for the 2020-21 academic year is part of supporting this mission. We believe that youth in our community should have the opportunity to:
- Have physiological needs met
- Be in a safe place
- Have positive adults who help young people discover who they are, develop the abilities needed to shape their own lives, and learn how to engage and contribute to the world around them.
For many students, school plays an important role in making this happen, but with reduced hours in the school building a gap emerges that the Kroc Center can step in to fill.
