Interest Meeting for Safe Families
Thursday, June 29th at 6:30pm
Please join us at 6:8, 821 Industry Rd, Sauk City, WI for an Interest Meeting to learn more about Safe Families, an organization that provides a secure circle of support for parents and their children who are facing a crisis in isolation.
Safe Families for Children (SFFC) Wisconsin is an organization that connects parents to a network of support through family-like relationships with vetted volunteers. Volunteers are fully vetted and trained to provide support and resources to parents while they get back on their feet.
Local church support is foundational to bringing Safe Families to our community. We invite you to join us for this meeting to explore what volunteer and support roles you may be called to give.
Watch this 6-min video for an explanation of the Safe Families model.
