Safety first! 🔥
Our Pre-K stars paused their learning to practice an important fire safety drill this week. While stopping our fun isn't easy, our little ones handled the exercise with so much patience and grace—holding tight to the walking rope like pros! We are so proud of their great listening skills and calm leadership.

Practice like this is just one example of the high-quality, supportive learning environment provided at our Exchange Family Resource Center. Our Preschool Club is privately funded each year and relies on generous donors to continue serving our young learners. Preparing them with the confidence, safety skills, and foundational learning needed for long-term academic success.

Thank you to everyone whose support helps keep our preschool thriving and our kids learning! 🌈

🎃 October is here! While costumes and candy bring smiles, some children in our community are facing something much scarier—uncertainty about where they’ll sleep tonight.

This month, we’re praying for families ready to open their hearts and homes to children in foster care. Could that be you?

Members of our clinical team were thrilled to attend Learning Session 1 of the 18-month Learning Collaborative for Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP)! 🌟

CPP is an infant mental health intervention that supports young children ages 0–5 and their caregivers following traumatic or adverse events. By strengthening the core caregiver-child relationship, CPP plays a vital role in early intervention and preventing the transmission of intergenerational trauma.

We are deeply grateful to the Oklahoma Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services (ODMHSAS) for funding this crucial training and supporting our mission to serve children and families!
