SATURDAY JAN 9, 2016 |

The Wilson Wood Foundation has granted Forty Carrots Family Center $10,000 to help underwrite classes for parents ordered by the court to participate in parenting education. Forty Carrots utilizes an evidence-based curriculum that is particularly effective with at-risk parents, including those who experienced abuse in their own childhood. To meet the court order, participating parents complete a 12 hour series and participate in two individual observations. Classes are completely free of charge. Forty Carrots receives no funding from the court and raises the money to provide the program through grants, individuals and special events.
