We've created a short, anonymous survey to learn more about the basic necessities families have struggled to afford or gone without in the past 30 days.

Your responses will help us identify gaps in resources, better understand the challenges families face, and advocate for additional support in our community.

📝 The survey takes less than 2 minutes!

Real families. Real needs. Real data that can make a difference.

We want to better understand the everyday needs and challenges of the families we serve. This short, anonymous survey asks about basic household and personal-care items that may have been difficult to afford or access during the past 30 days. Your responses will help EFC better understand the needs....

💙 Giving A Crepe About Erie!💚

We are So Excited to be partnering with Give A Crepe as they celebrate an incredible 10 years in Erie! 🎉

There is something extra meaningful about partnering with a local business that began with a mom wanting her children to feel proud of the community they call home because that is the same love for families and for Erie is at the heart of what we do here at the Erie Family Center every day!

For the month of October Give A Crepe. La CrepErie is “Giving A Crepe About Erie” alongside the Erie Family Center to help support the programs, resources, and connections that strengthen families throughout our community.

Congratulations on 10 amazing years!

Thank you for believing in our work, supporting Erie families, and choosing to celebrate your milestone by giving back. Here’s to local businesses, local families, and a community that takes care of one another.

Parenting is hard—and no parent should ever feel like they have to figure it all out alone!

When you join The Incredible Years, you aren’t just signing up for a parenting class. You are joining a supportive group of parents and caregivers who understand the challenges, frustrations, and joys that come with raising children.

Together, we’ll talk honestly, learn from one another, and explore practical tools that can help you:
💚 Encourage positive behavior
💛 Communicate more effectively
💙 Build a stronger relationship with your child
💚 Feel more confident as a parent or caregiver

This is a welcoming, judgment-free place to learn, grow, and become the parent you want to be. You don’t have to be a perfect parent—you just have to be willing to show up.

Two FREE groups are available this fall:

📍 Erie Family Center
Mondays from 5:00–7:30 PM
September 14–December 21

📍 Joanna Connell Elementary School
Wednesdays from 4:00–6:30 PM
September 16–December 16

Transportation and childcare are available when requested in advance.

Space is limited, so please scan the QR code on the flyer or use the contact information provided to sign up. We would love to welcome you into our Incredible Years community!
