to Learn More About the Children of TRFP

This holiday season...

As we gather together with our families and friends, in the spirit of Thanksgiving, Christmas and Hanukkah, we are reminded during this especially difficult time to think of those who have far less than we do. 

A Point in Time Count in January 2011 identified 484 homeless families in Connecticut.  56 of those families, including 86 children were from the Norwich-New London area.  37% of parents in shelters said domestic violence directly contributed to their homelessness.

According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration, children are at greater risk for
developing mental health problems when factors such as
physical abuse, emotional abuse or neglect, poverty,
frequent relocation, and exposure to violence occur in their lives.

This year, our Winter Newsletter is dedicated to the work we have been doing on behalf of the children of Thames River Family Program.

Please read and share our newsletter as you gather together during this holiday season. 

We thank you for your support and ask that you continue to support our programs and be part of the solution.
