This funding will support Family Centers’ work to better serve children and families arriving in Stamford from other countries. The New Arrivals Initiative will include embedding intake services within the Stamford Public Schools’ central offices, to provide screening and assessment for a wide range of issues including trauma, basic needs, housing, mental health, primary care, oral health, literacy and parenting. The organization is working with a number of community service providers to meet children and families’ needs, and to provide early intervention and preventive support.
