📍 Stop 5: First 5 Family Center at Esperanza House

We are proud to partner with this center and support their efforts to provide wrap around services to families and young children in Gridley. 💚

Providing food resources where people already are is key to our program success, and we couldn't have reached 1M pounds of food distributed without them. 🍓

🎉 A big graduation AND a new home. This Gridley family has a lot to celebrate!

When a family of four first connected with the First 5 Family Center at Esperanza House, they began participating in playgroups and accessing the food pantry. But those first connections soon opened the door to even more support.

After the caregiver shared concerns about their child’s speech, development and behavior, Parent Educator Dulce Carrillo Acosta helped connect the family with Far Northern Regional Center.

Since then, their child has made incredible progress in speech, development and social skills. He’s more interactive with his peers, sharing with friends and recently reached a BIG milestone: successfully graduating from Far Northern Regional Center! 🎓

And the milestones didn’t stop there.

The caregiver has built friendships with other caregivers, participated in a free Red Cross First Aid training and, most recently, the family celebrated another exciting chapter: becoming homeowners! 🏡

From finding support and building friendships to celebrating some pretty big wins, their journey is one example of the connections happening every day at Esperanza House.

Sometimes one connection can open the door to so much more. 💙
