Every parent has goals for their future, and having the right support can make a difference along the way. ❤️

The Parents for Higher Education (PFHE) Child Care Assistance Program at Fayetteville Technical Community College helps eligible student parents manage child care costs while pursuing their education.

The Partnership for Children of Cumberland County and the North Carolina Partnership for Children fund PFHE through NC Smart Start, helping student parents continue working toward their educational goals while building a future for their families.

📚 PFHE parents are also making a difference beyond the classroom by participating in our early literacy initiative! As part of our October Book Drive with Fayetteville Technical Community College, we're collecting new books for children ages birth to 5 to help nurture a love of reading from the very beginning.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month is an important reminder to stay connected to your health.

Know what is normal for your body, talk with your healthcare provider about any changes or concerns, and ask when breast cancer screening is appropriate for you.

Taking care of yourself matters, too. 💗
