Front Porch Project in Westmoreland County
If you've ever seen a parent "losing their cool"
with a child in a store or restaurant, if you've ever wondered if a
child in your neighborhood is being supervised and cared for - you
are not alone. These concerns, and others, are what the Front Porch
Project® is all about. FPP®
is a community-based primary prevention initiative based on the
belief that everyone can - and should - become more aware of how to
help protect fragile and at-risk children in their own community. It
provides ordinary citizens with the knowledge, training and
encouragement they need to become involved. The two-day training
sessions equip citizens with a basic knowledge of child welfare and
safety issues, skills for increasing their comfort level in helping
a child, and a wide range of ideas for ways they can support today's
families. A training will be held in Greensburg,
Westmoreland County on August 24 and September 27 (must attend both
days). For more information and to register contact Family
Support Alliance at 1-800-448-4906.
